For What Its Worth
Armageddon is on the "new VR".
My RADIO subscription will expire tomorrow. I'm taking the iBook with me to ElmHerst, but don't know if I'll be able to post (as if it is so critical). I somehow don't like the idea of paying 40 bucks every year when I can run MT on my own site for a full 25/mo So why don't I do it? I dunno.. lazy I suppose?
I have to do the following:
Renew tingoo.com
Get domain name for rantissimo.net
Get a host, or see if Hurrah can do the MT thing.
move the weblog to rantissimo.net
start promoting the thing. Question: What is my niche? really?
Currently reading:
Empire (once again).. still dry as a toad.
A language older than words. (interesting, new-agey, sorta kinda rebellious) oh well.. I like some ideas presented, haven't finished it yet.
Guns, Germs and Steel : Interesting book. I've only read the first few chapters. I would like to read the rest of it. I think it seems a bit rushed.
Went biking again.. I've been biking lately, without any effects on the ole gutte. I think I'm doing this all wrong. without any direction in terms of diet, I can't control the outcome of all this. Even though I was introduced to the biking traills in London Onatario which are quite nice actually.. Its about 20km. Which is not bad. The only thing is that I have to drive 40k one way to get to the trail.. maybe there are some nice ones in the INgersoll area? hmm.. we'll see.
I got calls from back home. Mom and my brother and everyone are worried I might get SARS. I dunno.. I might.. but the chances are low. Plus I'm not using the public transit too much these days. I heard a stat on TV the other day that in the same time period in which SARS claimed 20 lives in Toronto, there were 100 Flu related deaths.. so there you go. Talk about blowing things outta proportion.
I think Derrick Jenson's other book (Culture of Make Believe) would be interesting.
The war is over. The U.S just arrested Ahmed Chalabi's lieutenant [sp] today cuz he was trying to exercise authority not "his". Well, Mr. Garner has started to sound like any old dictator from the middle east. He dismissed the protests by Iraqi's as the work of the iranians. People are still running around with guns in Baghdad. I think it would be very easy for the Baath party to "unofficially" re-assert itself given the stupidity that reigns supreme and the complete lack of preparation that the U.S. seems to have shown. Could it be that the U.S. is just pretending to be stupid? or is it that they actually didn't think of the "after" part of this liberation?
I guess the time will tell.
Ola!
