Worked outside today, putting up siding. Did you know that siding is much easier to put up on a wall than it is to take down? Yes folks, I can confirm it.

In other news, it snowed today. No accumulation, but IT SNOWED IN SEPTEMBER.

It’s just not right. It’s just not natural.

Two fellows from Risk Management down at the College were up at camp the last two days, inspecting things. At the top of the list: lead build-up at the rifle range. Apparently, you can just reach down and scoop up handfuls of lead and lead arsenic anywhere around the target stands. Fun times [...]

Geeking out today. I took Monday off, so I’m working all day. Current task: learn Access 2000. I figured out the frustration I was feeling wasn’t due to my inability to understand what the Access 2000 Bible was trying to tell me, but due to the fact that the book simply sucks; [...]

Feeling vaguely anti-technology today. Struggled with Windows XP and its hired thugs (i.e. Dreamweaver MX) all morning. At the same time, thinking about the Technology Orientations I have to give to staff today. Why do we have all this technology here at HoneyRock, when we’re trying to be a “Place Apart”? [...]

So I’m stuck here in my basement laboratory the Wheaton College Yearbook Office. Been here all weekend, surrounded by sullen and hostile machines who desire no less than my demise. Yes, I am the long-overdue-for-retirement 2003 Tower Editor-in-Chief, may I soon rest in peace.

There’s a bite in the air—a nip, even. The mornings are crisp but bright. I have not seen such blue sky in too long.

I worked outside today, in shirtsleeves, putting cedar siding on the new cabins. I used a belt sander and a circular saw. I stained fresh cuts and I [...]

The 2003 Tower is a product of the blood, sweat, and occasional tears of a select band of Wheaton students, each a volunteer in his or her own right. Even if some of them did get paid a bit.

The 2003 Tower was laid out on an Apple Macintosh 733 Mhz PowerPC G4 named [...]
