I wonder why I thought that writing a parser would be so much easier than writing a renderer....

I don't want a parser with everything hard-coded.

But here's an #{idea:}# there exists no difference between hard and soft code. All code is mutable, so the only issue is of the manners in which the code is extended or upgraded. How the programmer extends, how the user interacts with the extensor, and what the difference between the programmer and the user is.

WikiCode? Note that that's a double-entendre....

My cinnamon gonesh sticks don't seem to work. When in the incense-bottle, bottle, the smoke from stick goes downward, and out through the breath-hole in the side of the bottle, rather than up through the mouth and neck of the bottle. This seems to indicate that the smoke is heavier than the air in the room.... If I remove the stick from the bottle, the smoke flows upward from the smouldering end of the stick. Hmmm....

16 Why do I get angry? There's no benefit in it, is there?

Maybe it's a subconscious attempt at frightening someone away. If that's the case, then maybe moving it from subconscious to conscious is a key to eradicating it. If I am only conscious at the moment of transition to anger, then the transition is a conscious decision, and that decision can be thought-out and avoided.

Time! It's the timing. It seems like time matters. That's the problem. Maybe. Maybe if I maintain'd a belief in the irrelevance of time....

I refueled my Beetle, tonight. Before doing so, I open'd my trunk and retrieved the bottle of anti-gel fuel-additive that I bought on the way back from Bennington. I was surprised--I'd figured that I should pour the entire bottle into my tank (isn't that how gasoline-additives are used?), but the back of the bottle read "add one bottle per 125 gallons of fuel". Then I realised that this might be intended for big diesel trucks..., with 125-gallon fuel-tanks.

Today was my birthday, too.

Nick and Anna and Chris and I went to the Osaka Tea Garden and had yummy food. Chris had the chicken tempura (as always), Nick had sushi (as always), and Anna and I split an order of Table Sukiyaki--prepared right at our table.

Then we went to Lowell to see Queen of the Damned, which was an amazing movie....

I really need to make the translations of these s-expression things be cached, and the need to quote certain things--using strings rather than symbols--is sort-of bothering me, and I'd rather be able to structure things semantically than need to group things into contiguous-character blocks.

I also need to go wash my hands--I got fuel-additive onto my finger, and, whate'er that stuff is, it's probably not a good idea to let it stay on my finger. It's making the finger-tip feel funny, anyway, I think....

I should do something about hooking list-procedures up to element-indicates in s-expressions, too....
