Hmmm–maybe I have that backward, but it’s late. Late, yet I am determined to blog just a couple of great things that caught my eye recently.
- Lisa Williams blogs Orkut, and reminds me of the most awful days of my life–those early teen years where an imaginary audience was *noticing* if I sat alone in the cafeteria.
- After a year of world travels, Dervala (soon to be Meetup-ing in Manhattan) blogs her native scenery:
“In winter it has the most dramatic of lighting designers, and the scene changes by the moment. Ireland will not be fixed: you cannot say you’ve seen it unless you live there, and even so the claim is shaky. Ireland is theatre, not painting, and you have only seen a production.”
- The funniest 3.2 Megs you’ll download today: mp3 of Sinister Ducks (blogged by Neil Gaiman, downloaded for me by my children.)
And in conclusion, I’d like to quote the March of the Sinister Ducks:
What are they doing at night in the park?
Ducks, Ducks! Quack, Quack! Quack, Quack!
Think of them waddling about in the dark.
Ducks, Ducks! Quack, Quack! Quack, Quack!Sneering and whispering and stealing your cars,
Reading pornography, smoking cigars.
Ducks, Ducks! Quack, Quack! Quack, Quack!
Ducks, Ducks! Quack, Quack! Quack, Quack!
