He said, she said

What is the deal with people writing things like ’said bill has been stuck in committee since last September’ or ’said roomate has been exhibiting general whininess’ in contexts where it’s absolutely clear which bill or roomate is being referred to? THE bill, THE roomate or even better, just use he, she or it when there’s no question. Sorry to single anyone out as a target of a rant, but it’s really baffling me how this got started and why it didn’t whither on the vine soon after said start.

Update: Couldn’t think of a good title for this post until now. It’s still pretty lame though, I know.

Superficial Pleasures

I must be superficial. I felt out of sorts today because of spending all of the last few days either at the company’s annual conference, with its associated stress, or at the bar trying to unwind before the start of the next marathon day. Then I wake to find that it’s noon on Sunday and I

have one day to not think about work as much as possible, and not really anything to do and no one to do it with. So, I putz around for a while and try to think of something interesting. I go to an okay move. Then, finally I get my new speakers working in my car.! The bass is so loud and the sound is clear! Now I feel great! I must be superficial.
strong>Update: I just realized this is also subject of my second post on this blog. A wheel within a wheel. Everything comes full circle. Or maybe just get some new subject material you tired old blowhard!
