Random binary items

And one that’s not binary, but first, a link to the taco plate update, a taco plate, a sequel, and a fish taco plate. For the Pisces, “Fear No fish.”

Gratuitous Amazon linkage:
Yeah, well, buy something, if you’re not sending me money. It’s that simple. The links sometimes pay a percentage, which doesn’t always amount to much, but every little bit helps. I was thinking about this because I got an Amazon payment notice, and the book (on the left), what with Amazon’s discount policy, retail and so on, I’m making less than a dollar – in total – off the sale. Part of that is the associate commission and part of that is the actual profit. Combined? Less than a buck. And that sucks. But what are you going to do?

The only accounting practice I’ve ever encountered myself, that is similar to the amazon price structure, is the way Dell pays the sales people. That’s one that I never did understand, and it seems to vary from moment to moment, as I’ve had to listen to clients and friends talk about the structure at the moment – mere mortals (like me) can’t figure it out.

I do live like a monk, parts 1 & 2:
(who isn’t really fat) called me a Shaolin Monk, then he elaborated a bit – but it was a good image and fir the scenario perfectly. Then, in reading, when I noted that I didn’t archive my weekly video clips, I was told that I was like a Zen Monk. Like the sand paintings.

I do live like a monk. No, really. A monk with a fat cat.

Why “open source” has an image problem?
sandals & ponytails are bad for business?

Fish on!
I looked out the door, the clouds parted, there was a ray of sunlight, no more wet stuff falling from the skies, the river’s a torpid mess of flotsam, and it’s perfect for a quick angle.

Little fish, small fish, medium fish, and finally, a single large fish.
