Frantic Guppi hacking continues, including some major decrufting. The current short-term goal is Guppi/Gnumeric integration... Jody's new approach to this problem is much nicer than the old way we were doing things. We are definitely going to suck less.
Food
My current favorite place for "fast food" is Taqueria El Milagro, which is on 19th and Blue Island (just east of Ashland, in Pilsen). Be sure to try the tamales.
Music
I didn't really like RATM's Renegades when I bought it last year, but I pulled it off the shelf for another listen last week and I've been loving it ever since. And why can't I stop listening to XTC's Apple Venus and Wasp Star?
Early Warning
RMS is going to be vising Chicago at the end of October, an d will be speaking at the University of Chicago Department of Computer Science on Wednesday, October 31. I'll have more details on his schedule closer to that date; e-mail me for more information.
