Filled out the Meyers-Briggs test that Cindy has asked everyone in the office to take as a staff development exercise. Put together a proposed health events policy and form for Chris. New news mockup for Susie, sent it to her for review. Made live admissions calendar 2007 for James. Website setup for student AC representing one of our student organizations. Lunch: takeout from the cafeteria: lemon chicken with brown rice and roasted vegetables, orange juice. Dinner at home with Patrick: turkey burgers, fries. Worked some on Lodestar. While reading a news story on canada.com about identity theft, I came across this sentence: "Give your SIN only to those who are entitled by law to ask for it." This humorously illustrates the importance of using the abbr tag to clarify that in Canada SIN stands for Social Insurance Number. I was a little surprised to read today that Joe Clark is reading the same book I am right now—My Lives by Edmund White. I read fawny (Joe Clark's blog) primarily for typographic amusement, secondarily for horror entertainment, and tertiarily (is that a word?) for the insight he provides to web accessibility. He's right about the book being poorly edited.
