Call My Lawyers

Occasionally I check my back-end metrics (stop smirking) to see if someone has linked to something I've done while hailing me as a genius. Still waiting on that, but I saw today that someone had used the image at left there in an argument thread people were having about prepositions, for Christ's sake. They were jawing back and forth about the New York thing of saying "on line" instead of "in line," and someone had found this on my site and linked to it (stealing both the image and the bandwidth, I might point out) and used it as an illustration, saying, "Is this an apple ON a table or IN a table?" Permission was not asked for or granted, by the way. Humph. It's not worth hassling over but still. I suppose I'm glad someone got some use out of it. But I think it's aesthetically pleasing so here it is again. I think it's got a certain Vermeer thing going on, but hey, I'm its daddy.

I also bought some wine last night for $5.99 and got a penny change and the penny was Canadian. I stood there looking at it, and decided it really wasn't worth mentioning. Pennies are pretty useless no matter what side of the border they come from. Another thing not worth the hassle. Peace, man.
