Thought-Scape

This is yet another way to waste my limited time... Most of the writings here will be a hodge-podge of what I'm doing, thinking, or discussing with my friends and collegues. Flight-of-Ideas, no... that would imply connections... these are Random Thoughts!

Shiver Me Timbers!

Today's Fun Fact:
The right side of a boat was called the starboard side due to the fact that the astronavigators used to stand out on the plank (which was on the right side) to get an unobstructed view of the stars. The left side was called the port side because that was the side that you put in on at the port.
