Campbell

By being an executive of a system, one is not doing what needs to be done to develop one's humanity.

training humans

Build a large, wooden windup box. People climb to the top to rewind it. Who is training whom? Is there a separation between the two? The box is filled with gears and levers that swing around and manifest somehow on the sides of the cube.

Politico

I never liked Politico. Mostly because they're carpetbaggers. The guys who started it were some of the first wave of rats to leave the sinking newspaper industry. But also because these are the same rats who chewed up the guts and made the ship sink in the first place.

Vandehei practically spit his answer at me when I asked him what he thought about his former colleage at the Post, Dan Froomkin. "That guy's a disgrace. That's not real journalism."

That was when Politico just got started. Bunch of print mediums scraping their scaley palms together thinking about bringing religion to the heathen blogosphere.

experiment idea

present students with a series of texts. Tell them they have to twitter them which means they have to cut down the content to 240 characters. See what gets dropped when people conform text to char limits. how does the meaning of the text change?

Divisadero

just found out that the noisy 7am work crews on the street outside are part of 3.6 million dollars the city is spending on a major street upgrade for ALL of Divisadero. Medians are replaced with broad walkways, on-ramp street lights are out while boulevard illumination is in amidst the palms and eucalyptus scattered across the widened sidewalks will make for quieter streets and prosperity abounding.

When i found this out, the second thing i said was, "oh wow, some day, after we've had to leave here, we'll come back and say, remember right there was that crappy store that had weird cheese."

"Yeah. That one we never go into?" Michelle said.

"Exactly. It will be missed."
