Not Caring About the Bow

Instead of getting really, really upset that Barack Obama bowed to Japanese Emperor Akihito while visiting Japan where bowing is a custom that goes back thousands of years, I’ve been working on some pieces of The Blog’s back-end code, playing Batman: Arkham Asylum, going for a short bike ride, taking a shower, eating some pasta with marinara, reinstalling the Flash player when it stopped playing audio, getting my Internet connection working with Windows XP and Vista in VMWare Fusion 3 (had to switch settings to “Bridged (Autodetect),” of course, how could I not have known?), combining the bit.ly API Javascript code with John Resig’s Easy Retweet, playing some more Batman: Arkham Asylum, and now here I am listening to Elvis Costello. What’s up with you?
