Oh man, what a great post... But the mp3 links are broken!  I really 
want to hear "The Shower Song w/hair".


This makes me think of my obsession with finding the optimal order of 
tasks that I do in a given day.  (I can save 5 seconds if I overlap 
rinsing the espresso cup with one hand while I flush the espresso maker 
with the other...)

I have long given up on reckoning how many I am (outside or inside), 
and I'm always amazed at those attempts to quantify one's own life.

I'm still trying to figure out if this post is a joke or not:

Maybe the fun is precisely in wondering so :)
