NICE HYGIENE: I have no underwear on this trip. I simply omitted underwear from my luggage. Call me "Commando." Discovered it this morning. Black sweater? Check. Black slacks? Check. Black shoes? Check. Black socks? Check. Underwear of any color? Nein.

And so I feel a little naughty today. And apparently I'll continue to feel naughty tomorrow...on accounta...

I left my computer at Microsoft after my presentation. I did not discover this until I was returning my rental car at Sea-Tac airport. I took the car back out, drove it back to the campus and, escorted by two Microsoft security guards, recovered the computer. I missed my flight to L.A. but caught the next one. And so by the time I arrived here...all the stores were closed.

I remain underwearless.

I heard the SOTU speech was blah, lackluster, no news, platitudinous. Too bad. Poor dumb Bush.

Just saw Hillary Rosen stumping for the dems. Or I should say spinning for the Dems. Never liked her when she was the unrealistic and harsh voice of the RIAA as they sued music consumers. Anyway, seeing her on the Dem side makes me feel better about not being on the Dem side anymore.

I won't vote for Hillary. Won't.

I've read ongoing analysis about how McCain can never be nominated.

I wish I had underwear. Or at least more pants.
