Well, maybe things in Libya are going well. People are in Tripoli all have different stories/perceptions. It's not over until it's over!

Watched an indie film tonight: Killer of Sheep. It is by a black writer/director, Charles Burnett. The film is not as dark as the title implies. The title refers to a job in a slaughterhouse where sheep are processed. Burnett has only produced a handful of films, but he's gotten good notices for what he's done. Several of his films are short pieces. One of his most recent shorts (several shorts and two full length pieces are on the 2-DVD set) is about some of the aftermath of Katrina. It's a pedantic piece that I quit watching. The rest of the items on this set are worth viewing.

Awoke in the middle of the night (early morning). Had a little trouble falling back asleep, but when I did so I went out like a light. Dreamed about working with the people I once knew at SRI. I was put on a project that involved doing some computer modeling. The dream was complex and very technical. I managed to produce a model that was a good simulation of a technical process. I felt some of the uncertainty that I felt when I actually worked with these people. The model I produced, in the dream, helped me feel more comfortable working with them.

PD dance and weight training tomorrow! Be great to move and lift!
