Blog award

Fellow blogger sent me the above award. I take it with mixed feelings because the award is for being part of blogging and bringing friendship closer through blogging. That seems rather redundant to me because that's why people blog. To get their ideas out there and see who holds similar ideas or just needs some moral support. I am beginning to think that blogging is changing the very way we think. On the one hand it brings people at very great distance closer together in a form, but on the other hand it's changing the very way we deal with information and I don't think it's in a good way. Our information gathering on the web has become so fragmented that readers are becoming deficient in gaining the full story or the entire experience. If we reduce our experiences to bits and pieces or 10 second sound bites there a serious danger of psychological ramifications. We will see what happens with the outcome of the next generation.

Sorry Wayne I should have posted this sooner.

Blogstorm March 19,2008

Another internet war protest for your consideration. I'm sorry to report that I'm skeptical of anything short of a major work stoppage like those in France will get anything done. Think about that for a minute. The streets nearly empty, no one buying or selling. Near silence like a graveyard. And as an added bonus have a lights out night. That by itself would save 20 million barrels of oil.

Sorry blogger is running like sh*t

An interesting web site

If your looking for a little honesty in information here's a treasure trove on the background of the deception leading to the Iraq war and a host of links about how your state government really works.
Be patient there's so much info it takes a while to load.
A great site for government research

New blog

Not really a new blog, but new to me. I was delighted to be added to the blogroll of Left of Centrist and I'll do the same as soon as I can remember how to do it. Man I'm getting rusty.

Blog rating

My blog was rated PG and I was going to make it a page element but it didn't fit and I didn't like the way they did the rating. Also they had an ad that I did not want. So I think I'll do my own rating and post it myself. How's that for a signing statement?
