- I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving weekend, stuffed themselves on turkey and mashed potatoes, watched football, and didn't fall into that "It's the day after Thanksgiving, you'd better get in the stores to start Christmas shopping" trap. I had a great weekend, seeing many of my oldest friends, as well as having the West Coast Wunderkinder militia roll into town and being able to see them. Life tends to revolve around hyper-politics on this site, so it's nice to see your friends and be able to drink and talk about other things. In any case, a very good weekend all around.... |

- goes on sale tomorrow. Based on the ad inserts in Sunday's paper, it looks like many places will be selling it as a loss leader. The lowest price I've seen so far was Best Buy, which listed it at $15.99 -- less than CostCo. I'm honestly intersted in buying it locally the day it goes on sale -- I've been in a mood to see the movie again for a while. |

ParentheC (Dec 01 2003 13:59 GMT) - ParentheC. Using ParentheC to Transform Scheme Programs to C or How to Write Interesting Recursive Programs in a Stack-Based, Imperative, Inhospitable Host... Another cool eaxmple from Dan Friedman (et al.). Scheme programs are manually translated to ParentheC, a Scheme dialect (implemented with macros, of course) which is then mechanically translated to C. |

- Le Nokia Game est finit depuis déjà deux jours, voire plus pour certains... et avec la fin du NG, c'est aussi le moment pour NGN de prendre congé, puisqu'à priori il n'y aura plus vraiment de news du NG à transmettre. Personnellement je ne suis pas tenté par l'idée de maintenir le site à jours avec des infos sur les nouvelles technologies Nokia et ce genre de chose, comme le fais par exemple Dion sur le NG Ref. guide. Donc je ne vois pas trop ce que je pourrais continuer à poster ici... |

J'ai honte de moi, franchement...Parfois je me dis que j'ai aucun problème, que oui je suis " normale " et que si j'en suis là c'est simplement parce que je me fous de tout et/ou que je suis bonne à rien...J'en ai marre de m'excuser d'exister. J'voudrais une Vie, comme Eux, comme Vous. |

- Il fait gris au dehors. J ouvre les volets, et je laisse les fenêtres grandes ouvertes pour aérer un peu la pièce. L air est chargé. Une bonne dizaine de clopes à vicié tout cela, et un double steack haché mangé vers minuit en regardant Prime Della Rivoluzione de Bertolucci. Un truc qui m a fait mal aux yeux. |
