My flight got canceled a second time, so it looks like I’ll be spending another night in O’Hare in Chicago.
In the meantime, I have another guest column up up bit-tech; I wanted to name it “The One Where I Wax Philosophical” or something but those wacky British editors change the title.
Read: Halo 3 and the Art of Repetition
Update: Looks like I’m in the news again, for all the wrong reasons!

I’m trapped in O’Hare in Chicago. I was supposed to fly back to Syracuse last night but my flight was canceled. I slept in the airport for a few hours, and am getting a lot of work done today (though haggard as anything). My flight out of here is supposed to be at 6:55 PM tonight, but it’s snowing like crazy out there and about 1/3 of all the flights on the screens are canceled. Fingers crossed I may someday see my beloved upstate NY.
I made a friend here, who I’ve named Bess Fren Inna Whole Why Whirl. Here are pictures:

Yeah, I’m going nuts.
Update: my friend AJ wants me to mention that she’s helping me, through advanced technology such as AIM, along the road to insanity. She’s no Bess Fren, but she tries.
