Morton Fox's journal

Arranged a little meetup and gave away the old laptop computer this afternoon. Also threw in the laptop case because I wasn't using that any more either. A backpack-style laptop bag is better because it's less obvious to would-be thieves that the bag contains a laptop.

Thanks to Lumacafi for translating the Me Tira Daqui sign that I saw in Brooklyn last weekend. It is in Brazilian Portuguese (Until today, I wasn't aware that Brazilian Portuguese was different from European Portuguese.) and it means "get me out of here". So, if there was any doubt before, the sign is a prank.

Ran some errands in Ramsey this evening. It's only 4 days into the new year and I've already received coupons through email and postal mail from Subway, Staples, Burger King, and CVS. (however, CVS always has coupons so it's not really worth noting) I used the Subway coupon on a black forest ham footlong sub. The Ramsey Subway restaurant has water problems today so their restrooms and soda fountain are out of order. Hope they washed their hands next door.
