Currently in a workshop “learning” DreamWeaver. It’s like FrontPage, only it doesn’t make the code look like scrambled eggs when it’s done.
Inventory management is coming along, but I’m kind of brain-freezed on the design side.
Ready to get back and get to work. Well, have to go. What a pointless post!

What is the ifeminist position on having women’s studies programs at public universities?
Women’s studies programs are a good example of why universities should not be publicly funded. Many people find that their tax dollars are funding poor scholarship and dissemination of offensive and inaccurate information in the name of women’s studies. It is likely that such disinformation would have a hard time taking hold in a marketplace of ideas. Yet they are easily propped up when we are forced to support them against our will through taxes. The ifeminist position is that women’s studies programs should compete in the free market. Let those who choose to fund them voluntarily do so, but it is inappropriate to force those who would otherwise not choose to fund them to “contribute” through taxation.

I think I like these “girlies.” Just kidding. Intelligent, independent women. Ha ha. But seriously. I like them.
Thank you Maxim, for your occasionally-good jokes:
A couple were celebrating their golden wedding anniversary and a local newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the secret of their long and happy marriage.
“Well, it dates back to our honeymoon,” explained the lady.
“We visited the Grand Canyon and took a trip down to the bottom of the canyon by pack mule. We hadn’t gone too far when my husband’s mule stumbled. My husband quietly said, ‘That’s once.’
We proceeded a little farther when the mule stumbled again. My husband quietly said, ‘That’s twice.’
We hadn’t gone a half-mile when the mule stumbled a third time. My husband took a pistol from his pocket and shot him.
I started to protest over his treatment of the mule when he looked at me and quietly said, ‘That’s once.’”

I’ve had the chance to meet some really great girls this week. In fact, my hope for my single, well-deserving friends was getting renewed. But then, I see them all put on short skirts and halter tops and head out to a club for drinking and dancing. Now, I’m not the kind of moralist who will denounce such an action as even being the slightest bit wrong, but what am I supposed to do if I ever hear one of them moaning about how good guys are hard to find? Do you find very many good guys in a club? Are you looking for good guys by putting on a short skirt and getting sauced?
The good guys are all at home writing inventory management programs and watching cartoons on DVD with friends. Okay, well, maybe some aren’t writing inventory management programs. In fact, I’m probably the only one writing an inventory management program on a Friday night in a college town in the middle of the summer, and I’m in a great relationship already, and… well, I digress.
Girls: this is not a declaration of rights or a commandment. This is just something that needs to get out there and FAST: If you see a guy you like and who seems to have class, just TALK TO HIM. Show him that you are interested and appreciate his being a gentleman and not trying to stick fingers up your skirt. Show him respect, accept a date, and don’t jack him over. Stop cranking all the time about shallow relationships. Half the time, the girl is the shallow one, anyway. There are too many guys sitting around for you girls to get back from the club and grow up about your “standards” (actually, mature standards will typically result in a marked improvement).
As a corollary, my new random website haunt is UrbanDictionary.com, which has fun slang definitions. Here’s a good one for this subject:
Bubblectomy
To have a bubble added to your stomach in order see where you are going while at the same time having your head up your ass.
There’s a random word feature, which makes for a good time kill. (Better than Meme’s.)
Alright. Off to bed. Just had to let that one out.

I found and corrected a typo in my Men’s Declaration (Preamble). It’s reflected in the original post (missing “and”).
I tried to write up a female one, but it just isn’t any good. I’ll have to keep thinking. It’s harder to come up with something useful when you have to be so careful.
