food

Maudlin as it might be, I spent a good couple of minutes looking at the final meal requests of Texas prisoners formerly on Death Row. I suppose that the State sees the last meal as a means of showing a degree of compassion toward the sentenced, and whether or not they deserve it is not something I'd care to debate, but it does seem rather crude that every last ounce of privacy is denied these people.

Whether or not their rights to privacy are reneged on committing the crimes of which they are accused is quite obviously beside the point. And yet I find this interesting. Bizarre, the things that catch ones interest.

Today was beautiful; I ended up reading in the botanic gardens for three hours, which is how every working day should be spent. However, I do take issue to this whole guilt thing; it's terrible and should be cancelled.

Couldn't agree more about that guilt thing. It's so unfair -- can't even enjoy yourself without having to feel bad about it!

I'll glady take your place in the gardens if your guilt should get the best of you. ;-)
