Δαφνη Ευτυχια Αρθουρος

Trying something new. Instead of having quotes scribbled on scraps of paper, and browser windows left open to pages with something I want to quote on them, I'm starting to keep a file of things I may want to post as "quote of the day" entries in my journal, and I've put together a shell script to post the first entry and remove it from the file. The cron daemon should fire it up at 5:20, so with any luck I'll be able to see that it worked when I get up in the morning. OTOH, if there's a confusing garbage entry in my journal around then, this is why.

Now I won't have to worry about forgetting what quotes I wanted to post, or about missing a day when I've got three different quotes in mind to post. I just have to be careful not to let the quotes file run dry. (I wonder whether I can get far enough ahead to leave the cron job working over Pennsic.)
