it's like crack

One of my co-workers today was asking what Facebook was. All I could say was crack. Face book is like crack. You just need to keep going back and checking. Seeing people you haven't seen in ages. Scrolling through the list of "Alumni" from your elementary school. Finding yet one more way for us to dump our personal information and ideas onto the web for one and all to see. It's like blogging, only faster, and more, and everyone, and just a touch of crack.

I came across this today on the news. Is there hope? I would call this a good news story.

too long

Have I ever mentioned that I hate moving?

I hate moving.

There, I've said it. And I don't have too much to complain about, because Rose has done most of the packing. And cleaning. And arranging. And all the other stuff that needs to be done. Something else that I probably don't mention often enough, I'm a very lucky man.

Anyhow, it's almost all done. One or two more trips. The house has been sold, and posetion is in a few weeks. Then Rose and I will be full time residents of Calgary again.

As for my computer wows... I went a week or two without. It was some what liberating. But now as you can see, I'm back on the juice. This time on my old laptop running Linux. Yes, I've gone hard-core geek. It's not so bad really. So long as I remember not to double click, we'll be fine.

So now that I'm back up and online, I'll see about doing some more ranting. We have renovations to do on the house, so let's see what that has to bring.
