Today I went to see the etching exhibit at the AGO. I enjoyed the Rembrandt prints, but I don’t care for Freud. Fun people watching, it was opening weekend.

Grilled tilapia seasoned with chile de arbol, salt, cumin and garlic.

Riding the streetcar, it’s snowy today!

Cold, snowy. Why not?

What operating system are the Google guys using?

The standard set up for a Plan 9 aficionado here seems to
be a Mac or Linux machine running Plan 9 from User Space
to get at sam, acme, and the other tools. Rob, Ken, Dave, and I
use Macs as our desktop machines, but we’re a bit of an exception.
Most Google engineers use Linux machines, and I know of
quite a few ex-Bell Labs people who are happy to be using
sam or acme on those machines. My own setup is two
screens. The first is a standard Mac desktop with non-Plan 9
apps and a handful of 9terms, and the second is a full-screen
acme for getting work done. On Linux I do the same but the
first screen is a Linux desktop running rio (formerly dhog’s 8½).

Maybe the best idea I will have today, if not all week.

Czech bakery somewhere in Texas.

This time Dan’s.

We were out running errands with Michelle’s grandpa, who loves hamburgers, and we were near BurgerTex.

Michelle’s new Yorkie coat.

There’s water in Onion Creek, a rare sight the past few years.

After a long morning of herding Yorkies

On our way to Austin we stopped at the first BBQ place we saw – Rudy’s in Waco.
