This is Not a Lyric Post

It would be pretty hypocritical of my to post lyrics here since I’ve spent a goodly amount of typing criticizing others for doing the same. My contention is 1) if I cared about the lyrics, I would look at a site dedicated to such things and 2) the lyrics themselves cannot possibly explain exactly what you meant to convey. If they can, then for utilitarian reasons you should be executed for lack of original contribution to the universe.

Suffice it to say, I heard a song that struck a chord (pun intended) with me.

Recently introduced into my overwhelming universe of things to worry about in passing has been the thought that my brother might be an idiot. I know, he’s really smart, and I imagine that’s why I only worry in passing. The thing is that he is just as intrigued by military culture and technology as the average teenage boy. My worry is that it may ripen into an actual desire to be in the military.

I’ve thought about what I might do. Physical restraint is not out of the question. Or I might load a gun and hand it to him, punch him in the face and say something sardonic like “why don’t you at least kill someone who injured you before you go off killing people you don’t know?”

Of course, this is all completely wasted energy, but, if nothing else, it will make for great fiction someday.

Morons v. Morons (Round 1,305,023 x 10^2,104,288)

Interesting. Intelligent design proponents want students to accept Genesis. People that are scared of the G-word want students to accept evolution as gospel.

Then again, I remember that critical thinking wasn’t exactly encouraged in high school.

Pint Glasses

Of all the things I got for Christmas, I think my new pint glasses have been the most entertaining. It’s just so much fun to have a pint of beer.

The funny thing was that I asked for them as kind of a joke. Thanks (you know who you are)!

The Future of Spam

I picture mail servers as mental patients loaded with lithium and placed at a receptionist desk (“Sir, there are 73 Bill Gateses here to see you about your bank account and 128 russian transsexual lesbians. Shall I send them in?”).

Weird

So I found this new site. It’s called writely.com. I’m actually writing this blog entry there. It works almost exactly
like Microsoft Word, and it can publish whatever you write directly to your blog if you give it your password.

The really cool thing is that it allows collaborative editing. That means that if I add your email address to the document, we could both edit it even at the same time! When we save, it does it’s best to syncronize our changes into one merged document.

This is really cool. I hope that my friends and I will all be taking notes in the same document at some point
