[I just watched this clip of an early Sesame Street skit](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8sNT-VFCow). The idea that Ernie could somehow make four of Bert's cookies look like five cookies by rearranging them has stayed with me my entire life. Perhaps it's my love of cookies, perhaps the need to hide things I did wrong (or bad eating habits), but something about this lesson stayed in my head for over fifty years. And I'm still not sure what it is. Oh, the fact that I just rearranged this site (a bit) but only wrote one thing new is probably part of that. Rearranging all my tasks and projects but not making steady progress is probably part of that, too.
