I like robot wisdom log a lot, he's a real mensch. In 1997 he invented the word "weblog" in its original form : logging interesting things that you found. He notes, eecummingly,
the unit-measure for blogging
is the blogger
and you subscribe or unsubscribe
to the blogger-as-a-whole
based on whether you find them
simpatico

Aggregators be damned (unless its hard news).
And today, so nice :
i once heard tell
of a toddler, overheard
after being put to bed
repeating to himself
a word he'd learned that day
and that's become for me
the prototype of our relationship
with 'reality'
(Nabokov agrees
it should normally be written
in quotes)

I am pleased to announce that I have a nice EP of twisted dubstep grime instrumentals coming out on dj/ rupture's fine Soot records. But more interestingly he has linked to my blog like 5 times in the past few weeks. 9.18% of incoming traffic.
I am pleased to have amused some un-named entity from Toronto who followed Rupture over here and has now twice linked this-a-way. I fixed my perma links, thanks. Now s/he wonders if I will ever link back, thus amusing Rupture so much that he would link about the exchange, some kind of recursion would occur blogging itself would disappear up-its-ass-o-sphere. I'm sure this happens every few minutes.
The fucking irony is that the post says stop reading this. TURN OFF THE COMPUTER. and what do people do ? They link to it. Oh great, now someone's tagged it on del.icio.us.

POV video from STS-124. No film director or composer could make anything this epic. Even Stanley Kubrick would tone it down or try to resolve it to edits and angles. The adrenaline builds, and at 2 minutes your mind beings to blow. The ending is truly beautiful, don't miss it. A camera gets lost in Aruba on November 11, 2009. A turtle finds it on January 15, 2010, films this refreshing shoegazer video and becomes a YouTube celebrity. The camera ...

From Jozi and Cape Town, South Africa 2010 Lloyd is from Zimbabwe and lives and works in George, SA. Every 3 months he goes home. His wife works in the US embassy and might go to India next year. He's trying to build his house, brick by brick, so eventually when he moves back he'll have some place to retire in. We chatted a bunch during the night bus.

I must admit that while I walked across the bridge to Zimbabwe Bob Marley started playing in my head. Sunny, windy, I'm smiling to myself. But they wouldn't let me in because the visa sticker is too big for the remaining space in my passport. I walked back to Zambia; they wouldn't let me in unless Zim stamped a denial. Back to Zim. Self-important immigration guy is on break, lady wants to gossip with friends and not listen to confusing ...
