CAE and Tony Conrad

Here is a

to the CAE Defense Fund site for Steve Kurtz and Co. Check it out, there are links to the photos from the protest downtown.

This is my favorite picture from the site. It is Tony Conrad. I heart Tony Conrad even though we have never really spoken. It has been on my "to do" list since 8 months ago. I need to talk with him to graduate and I somehow can never get the courage up to do it. One time, I actually met him and said, I need to talk to you so I can graduate, although I honetsly question if graudation will ever happen now that I have lost interest.

I asked if we could set up a meeting and he said sure. I said I would send him an email. He repsonded, "Does that really sound like a good idea to you." In my head I thought, "yes, it sounds like a good idea, I am a child of the information revolution." Then he said, "email is not good for setting up appointments and to call him on the phone at his house."

Everyone that knows me, knows that I am crippled by fear of talking on the phone. I hate it more than anything. On a funny side note, one time I even used that service for deaf people, where you type and they talk for you, just to avoid talking on the phone.

So after a couple days, I got up the courage to call him and then he never called back. Sorry I really don't have an ending for this one except that it's still on the to do list.

Dance Dance Revolution

Today I came home and saw what I never thought I would see. Emily Keating was at my house dancing to techno music and playing DDR. The surprise wasn't that Emily was there, cause she is staying with us, the surprise was that she was dancing to techno music and playing a computer game.

Here is a [inlink]paul,757[/inlink] to my original journal when we got this. Live soundtrack is on the journal.

On another note, the class I was teaching is done. We scheduled one extra class for next week. Now I am free to pursue some programming jobs and begin work on

AIM Integration

Although, I appear to always been online.

Really, just my phone is. However, you can always send me a message though, and I will get it when I return to my phone, which is often. It is the best way to conatct me.

Production Reduction Whats Your . . .

Distraction

May I also suggest RSS feeds for people who want to conveniently see the last twenty journal entries in an ultra fast and portable way, see the (e:info) journal's fav five for more info on how this works.

On another note I hate summer, I am not able to get anything done anymore. I have way too many social obligations. I want to be a cyborg in a desolate, winter landscape. 010010101...

Chief

I met chief tonight. He really reminded me of Jacob, it was the shape of his nose and the passion in his voice. I think alcohol really fucked him up.
I was drawn to listening to his stories. He gave me one of them if I promised to give it back. I'm not sure what I want to say about this yet, but I feel like he was be a node on (e:peeps) or at least he will inspire the existence of the nodes.
I need to talk with julie.

More Posts are Available

Just click the "...more" link at the bottom of the list. It will list every post in chronological order. If it had to load into a scroll section each time the page would take longer to load which would be noticeable on slower commputers

Gmail Eats Babies

In relation to Ajay's [inlink]ajay,45[/inlink] I would just like to note that as a professional data manipulator i feel this is a mega scam.

"Gmail is an experiment in a new kind of webmail, built on the idea that you should never have to delete mail and you should always be able to find the message you want. "

Translates: "Gmail is an experiment in a new kind of spyware, built on the idea that you should never have need to keep any information private from marketers and you should always be able to accept advertisements targeted by intesively searching through your most private data transactions."

Gmail, is really crazy, like friendster it appears like a nice free tool on the surface but it is really about "allowing" you to give away private information to marketers for something that costs $1. Seriously, buy extra gigabyte for $1 on your next hard drive an keep your mail personal.

Lexington Coop

We went to the coop today again, there were pictures of the new coop. I am sure it's construction will bring many other large storefronts like walgreens to elmwood in the near future. I mean how can we justify the demolition and construction for one company and not for others. I imagine the traffic is really gonna suck too.

What about the fact that the coop had the ability to change another neighborhood for the better.
Why did they not move down where the family dollar is opening, one block up from Allen. It's a big but not too big store, and it had a parking lot and no traffic problem.

What do you'll think? How many of you are members of the coop?
