scottobear | 7414

Weather Yesterday knocked me out. Made me wicked sleepy... After work, I had a long nap, and then watched Fog of War. It was quite fascinating, and I'd recommend it to anyone. First Time I've checked out the special features. Subtitles are in French, Spanish, Japanese, and Portuguese, and the additional scenes are of value.

Transcript and other info.

Krispy Kreme outlets will be giving away free doughnuts on 3 June 2005. (tomorrow)

OneWordMovie [Flash] asks you for any term and then produces a movie made from image search results of Google and others.

I enjoyed putting scottobear in there, since it's unique enough to just flip though stuff related to my life, usually images posted in LJ. slowest speed is my preferred viewing method.

Gave platelets again last night. (pre-nap) Fortunately, the saline wasn't as painful this time. I miss going at midday, when the nearby sub shop would bring over a free sammich instead of the center giving a packet of famous amos and a diet coke. Ah well, it's charity, I'm not in it for the free lunch.

I'm already missing MP, and she's not even gone yet. I'm a dope for getting too emotionally invested.

Newt loves it when I read to him at night. I don't think it's remotely strange to read him a bedtime story before we go to sleep. I like reading aloud, and he's a good listener (when he's not trying to sit on the book being read.)

I had a talk the other day with a coworker. They're upset about the low level of respect that's doled out in the office. My response is that what they think or say really doesn't matter. If they don't respect you, and you know you deserve respect... that's them being ignorant. I don't think it was very comforting.

Bro called me, still hasn't gotten his new cell-phone, and wants me to help him get this fishing pole out of storage to better get some food from off the land. I think he's got a telemarketing gig now, too. I'm hoping that I can get those for him shortly.

Right book, wrong description

Boy, church sure has changed since last time I went (via

Lately, I've been going to bed hungry. I'd rather have a little pang than bother to get up an eat. I don't know if that's better or worse for my diet, but sloth has officially defeated gluttony in my deadly sin ratings.

No good comcast resolution, so I canceled my billing with them. I may get the "dish", or I may just do without regular TV for a while. I can keep myself very entertained without cable, considering I only really watch shows that I torrent lately.

I'm a terrible one for philosophy, mainly because most of what's been presented to me has too much sophistry for me to accept.

Moment of Lyric:

Bodies in the sand
Tropical drink melting in your hand
We'll be falling in love
To the rhythm of a steel drum band

Pretty cool solar-powered gadget charging backpack.

very interesting!

woh are you, by the way? :)

I'm firpo.

i am someone who doesn't have a blog, but likes to look at yours a lot.

this is the first time, i think, that i had something interesting to add

Hiya, Firpo!

Welcome aboard, and thanks for reading.

I'm glad you spoke up and said hello!

thanks!

i have recommended your blog to folks before... i like your stuff.

firpo

You're quite welcome!

I appreciate that you've mentioned me around... how'd you find my journal, if you remember?

I used to look at naomi's blog just because she had a lot of friends. you were the person in her friend's list that i found the most interesting.

actually i don't know how I came upon her blog, (probably while doing a google search) but i've been looking at blogs, including yours, for over two years. I've never been tempted to make my own, (i think that since i'm an artist, i worry about dividing my creative energy... )but there are a few like you, onegoodmove.org, fallentoad, allthingschristie.com and some others who i like to peek in on daily.

there, now you know far more than you asked for...

also, i should say that i was heartened to find decent, intelligent people in florida. one realizes that there must be, but sometimes you wonder! ; )

firpo

I'll check out thos eothers you mentioned.. I'm always on the lookout for neat things to read.

So, are you a Floridian? I appreciate your kind praise.

What sort of Art do you produce?

i'm actually a californian.

i write, make videos, drawings and installation.

i'll text you a website if you want to see part of my project.

my work has drawn heavily from my research online actually

do you think lurkers should all out themselves?

I always enjoy when a lurker bubbles up and says hello, but wouldn't want to make shy folks feel uncomfortable.

I'd love to see your artwork... what part of CA are you in? I've got a few friends in San Diego and the Orange County areas.

i'm near LA and teach in LA

just sent a text message- you can let me know here if it didn't work...

I got it...and am checking it out now.

Very nifty stuff! Have you met Fabio?

I look forward to looking over the whole site!

re: Fabio.. you must've.. that's too good to be a digital insertion, I'd think!

The Timeline is very spiffy, too.

yeah, it's the real thing. long-short story.

and he IS the king of romance after all...

for my next venture i want to get george jones, but i haven't asked him yet. I'm afraid that i'm too sacrilegious for him.

That's very nifty. I bet you could get George Jones.

You seem to be quite resourceful!
