Santa brought me an Apple Watch. It has an Activity app which tracks progress toward user-defined goals on minutes of brisk exercise, calories spent moving around, and how often I get up and move around.

It's on a circular display, so it displays circular progress bars. Meeting a goal is referred to as closing a ring.

I'd finished two of three daily goals and sent email to my computery friends that I was two-ring complete.

Was watching a youtube video about Napoleonic War Cavalry and came across this gem in the comment section:


Why were the Polish considered to make the best lancers?


Because lances are pole-arms, of course!

I texted my wife a picture of the two outer circles complete and said "What does this make me?".

She said it meant I was in the inner circle.

When we say things like "Void where prohibited" and "Think outside the box" we hope our cats disobey.

I've just started studying French, and I had an idea.

It's to start an e-commerce site delivering jokes.

It would be called amusant.com.

Happy French Language Day!

The children's song "Alouette" features someone who, in every verse, tells the songbird it's nice and then says he's going to pluck the feathers off part of it.

I wondered why someone would decide to do something so hostile after saying the songbird was nice. But then I realized.

Maybe he was doing it on a lark.

Why didn't the lifeguard rescue the hippy?

Because he was too far out, man.

Eurology.

Yes, I gathered that was the answer.

Thankfully, it's one where text only breaks it a bit from the intended result. Stupid homophones.
