Personal:

Back in Grenoble

    By Jack Grant

I've returned to my home away from home, and now I have to go to bed because I have a meeting tomorrow morning at work (NOTE: The timestamp on my weblog is Universal Time Coordinated, or UTC, which is currently 2 hours behind my local time).

Joy... It's a meeting with middle management. Just enough power to hurt you, but not enough power to really make a difference. Just enough technical background to think they are able to ask relevant questions, out of action long enough to need directions to the ticket office for the clue train.

Bloody Hell. I hate these kinds of meetings.

No more posts until tomorrow when I'm through with work. Next weekend looks like an improptu trip to Prague, so I best better get my PC laptop up to speed.

Random Fate - latest posts


We don't handle randomness well.
   -Dr. Lucy Jones



Trying to hold the center in not so quiet desperation while the left and the right do their damnest to tear everything apart.


What Others Say
An American transplanted to France for the moment, Jack is sometimes conservative, sometimes liberal, and almost always right.
   -Pennywit

Jack has an impressive knowledge of history, politics, and Keanu Reeves. When it comes to pirates, Jack is waaay sexier than that pansy Dread Pirate Roberts. Oh, wait--I'm thinking of Jack Sparrow...
   -Jennifer (Jennifer's History and Stuff)


Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
   -William Butler Yeats, January 1919


Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
   -Dandemis


Wahabism Delenda Est
Wahabism must be destroyed.
