Moving Time

Hi there, oh ye noble few that read this website. Due to the China trip, I'm putting most of my force behind the essArt site.

Point your browser here.

This blog is going to be decommisioned in the near future, although I'm toying with the idea of keeping it as a place to dink around with writing that I don't want my family and close relatives to see.

We had a good run, BS&M, but it's time for something new.

Subdued

From Boingboing:

Today, a gentleman on an American Airlines from Boston to Los Angeles stripped naked, got dressed again, and then attempted to open the emergency exit door. He was then "subdued" by theNew England Revolution soccer team who were also on board.

Burn The Rope

Check out this fun, addictive and ultimately very rewarding online game.

From the heart of the internet, I stab at thee

Yo. I thought I was dead, too. Guess we were all wrong.

I'll have a more lengthy post soon, but for now you all need to watch this, so that your dreams may be haunted by it for all eternity.

Huuuuuuuuugs!

Last Full Day In Chile

Well, it looks like pretty much everything of the trip is over, and I'm on my way home. Just finished a marathon two-week trip to Peru.

The plan was to go to Bolivia, but that got sort of derailed; so we ended up spending the whole trip in Peru, hitting up Cusco, Machu Pichu, Lake Titicaca and Arequipa. I'm working to get some pictures up on the facebook for people to see, if they feel so inclined, but they probably won't be done until a couple of days from now.

I'll be back in the MN, save for a day or two I'll be in Madison landing an apartment for next year. My plane gets in sometime Christmas Day (if the snow is kind).

As an aside, has anybody out there tried last.fm? I'm trying it out to see if it can give me any unexpected recommendations for music, but it's taking about a week to build enough statistical information to start recommending things for me. I want to get some connections on here to see what this baby can do.

Anyhow, I'll be seeing some of you soon, and some of you not so soon, so have a merry holiday of your choice!

Subscript: The Chileans are all driving under my window waving flags and honking like psychos. I have no idea why. Was there a football game I didn't get told about?
