"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. " -Helen Keller

Bizarro World

In a true case of bizarro contrasts, earlier today I was writing about my passionate love for books and how I dream of having a full blown reading room. Tonight, I am learning how to properly dismantle a book. The thought of dismantling a book kills me but I have a job to do with a book that is somewhat time sensitive. The handheld scanner I spent huge amounts of time researching is a great little scanner but it refuses to do what I need it to do so I can complete this job. I'm starting to think the only choice might be to dismantle the book or to retype the entire freaking book by myself and that would be overwhelming. ARRRRGGGGHHHHH

I've actually dismantled a book before for a good cause. My Med/Surg text book in nursing school was about 5 inches thick and weighed a ton. One of our teachers (a total psycho) insisted we have the book with us in class so several of us took out books to Kin*kos and had them cut the binding off and punch holes in the pages. Then we put the whole thing in a big binder. Then for class we took the appropriate chapters. Worked pretty well actually.
By the way, google chrome is really not liking your blog these days. Keeps refusing to go here and telling me it's a risk for malware.

I've been fighting that shit for a bit. One of the blogs I link to has the issue but I can't figure out which one.

Sorry it isn't working the way it should. Grrr. Sometimes technology is way too much of a hassle.
