I shall be celebrating the preservation of Oor Gude King Jamie Sixt an First wi' a wee dram and my remaining sparklers tonight. I meant to make parkin for the office, but I didn't have time...

And while we've done lots of bad things to prisoners during the GWOT, a reminder of the cruel and unusual punishment you used to get *after* torture and trial.

Just to make it quick, as it's late, I got home a little while ago and opened my monthly IRA statement. It showed a modest increase, instead of a decline (this is the fund that hold my savings from previous jobs, not the one I currently pay into). The funds are still worth less than I paid for them, the result of several years of decline, but at least they're making a little of it back now instead of losing more. And I'm thankful for that.

And for a new Bill Nighy movie to see soon. But that's icing. :o)
