    This looks like Joey when he was about 16.
    (below is from this morning, commenting on your comment to me…mistakenly posted to myself…I’ll get this right!!)

    Imagine…the aggregator is built right in; nothing like the old days of unix prompts, notepad for html and vi to manage things. Thanks for the assist; great to see you Sat. This looks like a cool way to keep in touch. As far as Brian, if his purported malversation had taken place on campus, maybe?I think that complete erasure from the mind of the H machine has only happened twice. One, I read, took place in the 1800′s, when an enterprisingly vengeful young lad dropped a cannonball from the roof of Hollis onto the surprised noggin of his freshman tutor, who died forthwith. There are also vague rumors about erasure being the punishment for stealing from the libraries!? A Goodspeed blog could be a wonderfully bizarre thing. Keep in touch,
