Woke up way too late and had to deal with my friend Manual Spammo. What poor
lives these saps must lead to have to cut and past their way now through the
handy dandy “are you human” quiz before each comment is posted. Looks like it
took longer to post than delete. That is a gain. Anyway:
- Notice: SayNay must email me at genx40@gmail.com today to answer certain questions today if he/she is not to have every comment deleted upon posting.
- Update on great radio: NCPR played an interview this
morning of one WWII vet including reflections on the misappropriation of
patriotism and heroism. To my mind it is no different than the appropriation of
the word “Christian” by the ecumenically-resistent North American protestant
evangelical right. - Consider these considerations: blogging is like bottled water, the web is
another mass medium, most people had niche based lives before web 2.0, blogging
derives from early 90s cocooning, there may be way more than 57 channels but
there is still nothing on. - It would appear that the
Government is not amused by the suggestion in the Globe yesterday
that the PMO was trying to keep 40,000 in the war zone of Lebanon under
wraps. - Municipal wi-fi
for Toronto – who knew? Is this good? - The Red Sox have recovered from their all-star week jitters, relying
yesterday on a 87 year old Grampy Curt Schilling if the photo on this
article is anything to go by. Nice to see the
Jays imploding…yet beating the Yankees and the
blame going to last year’s player of the year. Am I dreaming?
Gotta
run.
