  • After last night’s Firefox Crash-a-palooza, Mail tanked on me this morning. WTF? I ran disk utility and repaired permissions. This is what I got:

Feb 26 08:29:03: Disk Utility started.
Repairing permissions for “Lady Snowblood”
Determining correct file permissions.
Permissions differ on ./private/var/log/secure.log, should be -rw——- , they are -rw-r—–
Owner and group corrected on ./private/var/log/secure.log
Permissions corrected on ./private/var/log/secure.log
Permissions repair complete

Should I worry?

  • Wayne Coyne was on NPR’s “This I Believe” series this morning.

  • Other than running to pick up the dog, I expect to be home chained to the desk all day. Say a prayer for me.
