| Radio Bump Reply Hazy, try again.  Monday, January 28, 2002Some people insist on teaching people to do things that the rest of us will be really annoyed by. I hate getting html email, let alone html email with multimedia files embedded in it. 10:21:29 PM
 discuss [] Pogo This is available in Britain now. Forget what I said about that cell phone last week, I want one of these.(Until I find something I lust after more.) Now I am really going to do yard work. 5:05:47 PM

discuss [] Those of you that have been tuned into this site have probably noticed that I have been publishing with a lot more vigor than normal the last couple of weeks. I originally thought that it was the return on my broadband connection that was making me post more, but I'm thinking along different lines now. I think that my interest in Radio Userland, it's desktop news aggregator, and RadioExpress have been responsible for my renewed interest in my site. I do not mean this as a universal endorsement of Radio over the other tools available out there, but that it is more Mac oriented than the other blog publishing tools despite being cross platform. It runs on Mac OS X perfectly. It is a platform for futher development if I ever have the time to do it. Finally, I like that my publishing data is right here locally and that I can publish in two places with a single tool. 4:57:17 PM
discuss [] The New York Times give an excellent review to Harold Bloom's "How and Why to Read." I read the first hundred or so pages of this book, realized that I would need to read a whole bunch of additional books from the "canon" of literature to continue, and have begun, based on a list I made from those first hundred pages, reading them all. I found myself wishing that Bloom had given the reader a list of books that he thought they should read or that he mentioned in the book. Having said that, I really enjoyed the first hundred pages of this book, and I look forward to reading the rest eventually. 4:48:08 PM

discuss [] I read Harry Turtledove's The Guns of the South over the weekend. It's based on the premise that the South actually wins the Civil War due to the intervention of some time traveling folks who give them AK-47's. I actually liked it, and I think that it was very different in it's portrayal of folks like Robert E. Lee than I originally expected. I'm ashamed to say that I have stayed away from Mr. Turtledove's books in the past because I thought that the covers looked hokey, but now I'm going to read some of his other works. So I guess I do judge books by their covers. 12:19:18 PM
discuss [] So Patriots and The Rams survived yesterday and will be squaring off in the Super Bowl next Sunday. I doubt that the Patriots have much of a chance, so I'll be in their corner. The Rams are incredible. 11:16:30 AM
