Chris Rock on the World Going Crazy
Thursday, July 20th, 2006 | Inspiration | No Comments
You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America’s Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn’t want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named Bush, Dick, and Colon. Need I say more?

Google Notebook
Wednesday, July 12th, 2006 | What's New? | 1 Comment
I’ve been looking for a feature such as Google Notebook for the longest time, and now it’s here. Previously, I used Tadalist to organize all my notes, such as to do lists, project lists, grocery lists, x-mas list, etc. It’s still a great service since it allows me to access my lists from anywhere and check off items I’ve done with a strike-through, and I’ve used it often times when I’ve been traveling. I think Google Notebook may be much more flexible for me since it offers a larger text area for jotting down long notes.

LatchkeyTV

In retrospect, I think I know now why television is so much a part of my life, as much as I want to tune out of it. I was a latchkey child — both my parents worked, and so each day I would come home from school as as child, it would be to an empty house. The only thing I could do to feel safe and secure while I waited for my parents to get home was to turn on the television and watch cartoons or sitcoms which would rescue me from a quiet, insecure reality.
