Back to silicon valley after a weekend in LA (Fatburger- a fatburger with cheddar, bacon, and a fried egg; Zankou Chicken- chicken Sandwich extra garlic; Izzy's deli- tuna melt, I think; In-n-Out (kettleman city)- double double, grilled onions). This was an interesting weekend, I hung out with people I haven't seen in years and made the acquaintance of a few people whith whom I have shared at most one or two words, so it looks like the circle of people to party with expands. Today's links are a motley group with no theme: self-similar flash spiral avoid this one if you get dizzy easily. The best ofbash.org, these are great quotations worthy of such genius minds as spanky, fat tom, and gyppo lou.

Rubbing salt in it

This post might be a little oblique unless you know me pretty well, but the internet at large is an interesting way to vent 8^Þ

Someday, when I'm awfuly low...and the world is cold, I will feel a glow... The four Tops-It's just the same old song U2-One Crowded House- Don't Dream it's Over Simon and Garfunkel-America Crowded House- World Where You Live The Beatles- Nowhere Man (inside joke at Paoli's) Bobby Darrin- I'm Beginning to See the Light Billie Holiday- The Way You Look Tonight (roof of campbell, night working in the etch lab) Paul Simon- The Obvious Child INXS-Beautifull Girl The Police-Synchronicity II David Bowie- Golden Years Harry Belafonte-Man Smart(Woman Smarter) David Bowie- Rebel Rebel( just cause she liked the song so much) Peter Gabriel- In Your Eyes (long, live version)

So this post has recently been edited since it first went up, because really, my life's much better than the old post version would have led one to believe. While I can't shake that naked eyes lyric, cause there is always something there to remind me, I'm really doing qute well now. I guess my current mindset is best described by Gyppo Lou's historic quote to a cute scientologist in Miyagi's (which will soon be appearing on a t-shirt in my cafe press shop, with 1/2 net (initial)proceeds going to lou for saying it with a straight face).
