I am not opposed to socialized medicine on principle.

I am just concerned with the government's competence at handling things.

I am utterly devastated.

I am just starting to get into it.

I decided that i am determined to go to the digital poetics conference in London 2005. My newest poems will all deal with reailty epoetry which has to be something new. It's like reality televisiion poetry style via blogs.

Here are the newest ones, each time you visit the self-collect and should be different

On Collecting

I have never had anyone send me roses.

I have a vague memory of typing this up, but I'm too lazy to check, soooo i'm just gonna drop it here.

I have a pretty good idea of what to look for in features , i am just unsure of what is out there.

I have absolutely no scientific training.

I have an art degree.

I have submitted my first blog about having trouble blogging.

What started out as some quick notes whie day-dreaming in electronics class[inlink]paul,2632[/inlink] turned into my next poetry project. It
takes "I have" statements and writes them into poems. The best part is that the poems are self-documenting. Everytime you visit and a poem is written, a date stamped html file is created to document that poem at the moment.

Here is an example poem:
On Collecting

I have no problems.

I have a broken arm, but I had those things coming.

I have yet to find that job.

I have supported financially.

I have joined the crazy world of online journals.

I have to admit it.

I have the same conflicts with socialism.

I have no one.

I have never seen the cartoon.

I have learned 80 brand spankin' new words in the past week.

I have realized that it's really important to be your own cheerleader.

I have done my best.

Another job offer came, it seems like the fifteen millionth this semester. I keep having to turn them down because of the whole Canisius Professor thing. It better work out. If I am not a full-time progfessor in the Fall, I am officially leaving Buffalo forever.

This time it was Second Life . Who would have thought? It seems like only yesterday I was teaching a class called temp:real about Linden Lab's Second Life. This job was for a online community admin and social networking person at Linden Labs.

The best part is they also asked if I could recommend someone and of course, I recomemended (e:twisted) , the best community admin I ever have worked with ever! And she lives right in San Francisco. What a perfect opportunity for her to realizie her career goals in online community.

On another note, Stephanie Rothenberg decided to use an estip node for her class. The more classes that use estrip node, the quicker I can realize my place in the academic software hall of fame.

I also pitched the site to a bunch of students. Maybe we will see some more new faces shortly!
