    I just uncovered a draft of a post I began in October relating my last trip to Minneapolis (of my last week with Creative Metrics.) The draft ended in mid-sentence. I was able to finish the sentence, but not the story. I'm pretty sure that it was a good story, maybe I'll just make up a reasonable ending and post it anyway.

    I have lots of unfinished posts. Some of them even make it out of my head. Most of them arrive around 1 am while I'm lying in bed.

    My VW is lying dormant a few houses away, on the side of the road. I kicked the running board and mangled the trim. I'm having a lot of subsurface anger issues with inanimate objects.
    I'm supposed to be at a customer's site right now. (Oh yeah, Rob Eisenberg and I founded a software development consulting company in October.) My carburetor has a hole in it. I'm not sure why. It was plugged, but the plug occasionally blows out. It blew out last week, but I haven't driven the bug since then. This morning I tried to "fix it", and then I discovered the battery was dead. So I attempted to charge it with the portable battery charger that I carry with me in the Beetle. The charger registered Fault. So I roll it down the driveway to pop the clutch. Nothing.
    I tried one more push start before I curbed it and kicked in the trim. I was ever mad.
