Corned Beef

Bruce Ediger

2024’s corned beef and cabbage! A decent corned beef this year, slightly salty. The extra salt in the broth gave the vegetables delightful, extra-umami flavor overtones.

Binary Star #3, Dell Publishing Co., Inc., 1979. ISBN: 0-440-10526-9

Featuring two great novellas in a single volume:

  • Dr. Scofflaw, by Ron Goulart
  • Outerworld, by Isidore Haiblum

I only read Dr. Scofflaw, apparently in 1979, and again 45 years later, in 2024.

I found a high school relic that proves I’ve been a troll since at least 1979.

New Wine was apparently the literary magazine of Northwest Missouri State University’s English Department. By appearances, it’s a well produced zine. I can find no reference to it on the sum total of human knowledge, the World Wide Web. I may have the only extent copy of this literary effort.

I solved Wordle™ brand video game, puzzle number 986 without computerized help, but I made a silly 3rd guess. I wondered if the solution word was the only word available after my fourth guess.

Bruce Ediger

I bought a Qotom Q20332G9-S10 fanless server, which I hope will eventually replace my older Dell PowerEdge R530, which was manufactured in August - December of 2014.

This started me on a journey of discovery that I could scarcely have imagined six months ago.
