My calendar lists last Tuesday as “Election Patch Day.” (We had a state primary election, which fell on Microsoft’s second-Tuesday-of-the month schedule for releasing software updates.)

I guess you could consider elections to be patches keeping the government up to date.

Edit: On the other hand, there are usually two or more competing “patches” that disagree on how to fix the problems, and even what needs to be fixed.

It’s not off to a great start, but heres hoping today is less frustrating than yesterday.

Was hoping for more than 30% chance of rain, esp. the way TV news was going on last night w/LIVE DOPPLER 2000! Where’s that “Weird Al” Yankovic vid?

Appropriate. Today’s Word of the Day is triskaidekaphobia.

Slowest Patch Tuesday update ever. Of course that’s partly because Norton decided to run a full scan DURING the update.

Patches did eventually finish, but it took >1.5 hours to install them. Usually if I start it before lunch, it’s done when I get back.

Someone searching for “old photos of shoreline village long beach” hit this photo…taken last week. Oops.
