Ahhh... Poetry.
Read
some, or write your own.
Perhaps you need a little help getting started. Or, perhaps, you'd like the computer to write the whole thing. How about some Alien poetry?

Okay, so I, like you, read other blogs and think "That's really neat. Why
didn't I link to that first?" Well, the truth is, it doesn't matter.
Isn't the idea to link to something thats nifty? Well, Dammit, thats what
I'm gonna do.
I like M.C. Escher. As
a kid, I really liked Legos
®. Naturally, someone has merged these two things beautifully.
Of course credit should go to WTF for pointing me to that site. I've been reading them
for a little while and added them to my site today.

Johnny Cash left us last night. I'm not qualified to say
all that can and should be said about him and his work. But it's a sad day.
Also, rather suddenly John Ritter died last night as well. Far from being recently ill, his
passing comes as more of a shock.
Naturally, our thoughts are with their families as their spirits mingles
with us all.

It's been nearly two years and people are finally coming around to the
fact that following a moron like President GW Bush into war might have been a
mistake. Sure, there were plenty
of us who were never
fooled but amazingly there are some who still are. Those people need
to read this. You probably should too.

Soooo, you think everything is going smoothly? Where have
you been?
A friend of mine asked me today, "Why does the theory of 'trickle-down' economics always make me feel like I'm
being tinkled on?"
I replied, "It's just a polite way of saying that you're being shat upon."
Finally, the truth comes out...

The line between a Live Bands and DJs has been blurred beyond recognition.
Fine by me.

Although I'm not entirely opposed to impeachment, think about who would be taking

This is a clear violation of the First Amendment. Nothing
is more Un-American than the suppression of Free Speech.
I'm livid. I'm ashamed to be an American. Certain people are intent on
ruining this once great nation and it upsets me greatly.

Not much for you today but you should know about this. You might also want set aside some time to read
this (it's a pdf. Click here for the viewer.)
In the interest of fairness, I should also show you this
unfortunate tidbit.

What is a wiki?
To me, it looks like the purest expression of what hypertext was meant to be. The Wikipedia
is a stellar implementation of the concept.
Some groups are using wiki databases to share information or even develop software.
How about a wiki that describes a wiki!

So I haven't come up with anything new to say. I can tell you that some of the old stuff has
been moved to another page. What's
especially weird is that you can even view very old versions of this site.
The Wayback
Machine at Archive.org is nifty tho i haven't come up with a practical
use for it. The archive also has film, software, and even an etree
section! Now, this is what I call useful!

The news has the power
to inspire, shock, or worry.
I always like to read about someone who stands
up for his rights.

Understandably, folks are concerned about Biological
Weapons being weilded by nations and terrorist organizations. This threat has been around for
quite some time and much has been done to prepare for and
eliminate it. In fact some even allowed themselves to be infected to aid in defending
againts biological threats. A number of Vietnam era draftees opted to take
part in Operation Whitecoat rather than serve combat duty- largely for religous reasons.
Today, there are things that you can do and, things
that you should know. But it is important not to overreact.

Cinco De
Mayo - is a Mexican National Holiday, not a US National Holiday but, it is often used as an excuse to
drink and be festive.
If dragged into a Cinco De Mayo party, I'm more likely to sample some Mexican Beers than to get to heavy with some Tequila. Perhaps
they should make May 6 a holiday for all those coping with a tequila hangover.

The
Polyphonic Spree is one of my new favorite bands. If pressed, I'd
describe them as "a mini-orchestra crossed with a mini-choir, candy
flipping with electric guitars on a sunny day". Though they might not
agree.
Another possible description would be George
Martin producing The Flaming Lips with vocal arrangements by Brian Wilson and a healthy dose of LSD. Does that sound too weird?
At least they're not named 'Godspeed You Black Emperor!'. (Imagine the best part of
Pink Floyd's 'Echoes',
stretched out for an entire concert; performed by a nine piece band that
includes strings. Lots of crescendos, no vocals, fuzzy -not heavy. . .)
