woensdag 6 oktober 2010

woensdag 6 oktober 2010 Up at 1:46. Turn on France 24. They're still talking about Jérôme Kerviel, who was sentenced to three years and fined 4.9 billion euros in damages Tuesday for illicit trades that led to huge losses at French bank Société Générale. Report - 'Rogue Trader' Says He Is Scapegoat Of Financial System.

French media reports that it equals more than 170,000 years of wages for Kerviel, who now declares an income of 2,300 euros per month as a computer consultant. I toss and turn. Rice, a little General Tsao chicken and a fried egg for breakfast. Turn on Stephanie Miller. They mock Christine O'Donnell's I'm Not A Witch ad. Snicker.

Up to Kaladi for some of Jeremiah's fine coffee. I just take it home with me. Shower. Streetcar to work. 10 - Breaks for Cristin, Toni and Patty. The 6 Seahorses get the Halloween spirit again.


11 - Charmaine's lunch. Patty and I take the Seahorses to what the kids call The Water Park - the South Lake Union Park (or SLUP). But there's no water flowing out of the fountains today. The twins keep picking up little treasures - red leaves and stones. 12 - Renee's lunch. The 7 Seahorses eat lunch. Anvi is tired early. By 12:45, everyone is asleep. 1 - Cristin's lunch. It stays quiet. 2 - Patty's lunch. The Seahorses sleep well. Walk up Westlake to my place. Drop off stuff. Walk up First Hill via University and back down Spring. The IHOP on Madison Street is closed. It's a little surprise for me. Back to my place. Play podcast of The World. They have an interesting report about a film which depicts a group of westernised twenty-something friends drifting aimlessly around Islamabad. Report - Director Hammad Khan’s Slackistan. "If you think you know Pakistan, think again."

Watch Star Trek The Next Generation - Data's Day. I love this episode. This is where Data learns to dance. It's a busy episode with Data's own log describing his impressions of human relationships, a wedding, Geordi's haircut and the dealings with Ambassador T'Pel...

who winds up really being as Subcommander Selok - a Romulan spy.
