end of an era

The final nail in the coffin of the Sixties was driven home recently when Grateful Dead Merchandising, the group that handles official products for the band and is overseen by its surviving members (Namely, Jerry Garcia's ex-wife) pulled over 3,000 live shows from the online music database Archive.org. Considering that the Dead allowed fans to tape and trade their music for over thirty-years, this move seems a bit greedy and pointless. Indeed, when you get confused, just listen to the music play..

hhahahahaha

I looked down from reading my book last night and started laughing...

Folks, it appears Daniel needs a roommate. And having established the following criteria, I doubt he'll have trouble finding one.
"If you are looking for a room, actually have an income, don't mind the occasional wang dang doodle, and are laid back as all get out, give me a ring."

A very cool and brief history of the English tongue, with a chronology and a comparison of the Lord's Prayer in different stages of the language.

bad idea

Former FEMA Director Michael Brown, heavily criticized for his agency's slow response to Hurricane Katrina, is starting a disaster preparedness consulting firm to help clients avoid the sort of errors that cost him his job. In other words, to help clients avoid the sort of mismanagement that occurred under his regime.
