Alas, poor Advogato...

If only you had had System ER. :)

But it's good to have it back. Otherwise I would have had to go through the probably trivial effort of installing NITLog, followed by the non-trivial effort of collecting and converting my previous diary entries, and the depressingly large effort of coming up with my own CSS stylesheet.

And speaking of capitalism...

I've confirmed it. Spending money doesn't cause happiness, only earning it does. So if earning your money doesn't make you happy, then do something, quick: it's not getting any better from there.
