I got yelled at by my middle school basketball coach while singing Don't Stop to myself and ignoring instruction during practice. That memory never leaves me.

BH:

excited to report that the great cleaning of various things means that I no longer have a long Ethernet cable under my desk that was plugged into my computer but not plugged into any sort of Ethernet port.

Also, I decided that having Cambridge Soundworks speakers that aren't plugged into anything was sort of wasting space. Also Cambridge Soundworks hasn't existed in awhile.

If I had to guess about why I had a giant Ethernet cord around.... maybe it went to college with me? I wasn't using it to host any radio shows.

BH:

Chop: I credit my great depression-era grandparents for instilling the principle of being reluctant to throw anything out. In other words, the speakers and the PCWorks thing are in a crate.

I figured that making the area under the desk less of a fire hazard would be a good move since the carpet is going away (over my veto) and I felt making it look less insane was a good idea.
