From the ridiculous to the sublime

Well, last night Illinois lost its governor in a most ignominious manner. Made me wonder for a tiny moment if funding for those FirstSearch databases will now magically reappear. Probably not. So I'm distracting myself with the feeds. Stephen's Lighthouse led me to a list of the 500 worst passwords of all time (warning: NOT G rated). My picks: "hello" and "123456." LISNews posted the word that 73.4 percent of all Wikipedia content is created by only about 1,400 people. Can you imagine being married to one of them? But what really pulled me out of the dumps was a visit from Tara, class of 2001. She and boyfriend Tyler are going to bicycle around the world. Yes, the world. They leave on April 1.
