"Pulse" band audition flyer. Using copper wire from Christmas lights for a math and science project. My thoughts on "Babylon 5" and "Star Trek". Climbing a tree at a baseball field.

Sore throat due to allergies. Losing white blood cells due to donating blood? Stargazing! Two nights ago with binoculars and memories of the telescopes from my childhood.

Blood donation yesterday. Iron count 13.8. Pulse 53. Blood pressure 118/74. Rambling, not fully fleshed out, thoughts on Jesus saying "Give to Caesar what is Caesar's..." Ending with criticism on the State of the Union Address -- not Bush's latest one, just the *event*.

Brief impressions of Bob Harris' _Prisoner Of Trebekistan_. Organizing some of my writing papers leads to a bit of serendipity. A poem unlocks a memory. I ramble on the power of writing; the resonance a piece can have after years unseen; messages for the future.

George R.R. Martin's "A Song Of Ice And Fire" is coming to HBO? Great news. Other great news: my dad doesn't have melanoma! But he does have a hurting neck, much like I did. Performance artist as police officer?

A very cold morning. Health insurance enrollment finished. The sixth anniversary of my mom's death on an amazingly cold day; forgot to mention the snow flurries, rare in the non-mountains of San Diego. A tea master -- watch out for my slurp. At the end a brief conversation with Leslie Vasquez, followed by a locked door.

Possible health insurance problems which leads to pessimistic thoughts on the nature of bureaucracies. Brief discussion of episode 3 of "24" season 6. Infecting another with the sport of triathlon.

Excitement over watching the first two hours of "24" season 6 -- not premiering for four more days -- but watchable due to the Internet. Some thoughts on BitTorrent and the other two items I downloaded.

A basic retelling of Friday's assembly at school by Samuel Nehemiah. He is incredible! See for yourself at www.ExcelaNation.org. He is a beacon in this world. At the end I briefly discuss efforts to reorganize my comic book collection.

Oversleeping and the dream I had this morning. Brief description of the dawn. Halting, awkward thoughts on Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, attempting to consider it from the subatomic perspective; ending with trying to imagine what matter-energy is. At the end meant to say "We know less than what we *don't* know."

Sunrise and saying good-bye to my brother who's off to UCSC again. Two brief stories about yesterday's work: coughing and graffitti. Update concerning my bedroom's repair. Forgotten topic ends the show.

Back to school after Winter Break. A few details about it; mainly my dad's possible melanoma. Impressions of "Joyuex Noel" and a BBC World War One documentary. I sing a song from WWI and end with wishes for a happy new year.
