As a teenager growing up in a very small logging town in the BC interior, I had what could be politely termed unusual musical tastes, especially for the mainstream, heavy-metal, hair-banging kids I hung around with.
But when I was alone with my walkman, I listened to the real geniuses of 80s rock: REM, Kate Bush, Talking Heads, and…Lindsey Buckingham.
Lindsey Buckingham?? That guy from Fleetwood Mac?
Want a little aural treat? Listen to Go Insane. I literally wore the oxide off my version of the cassette. Crosses so many different boundaries…and realize that you are pretty much hearing Lindsey Buckingham only. Mick Fleetwood makes a couple appearances, but other than that, it is a one-man show.
Do it. I dare you.

Today, they christened the Nimitz-class carrier, George H.W. Bush.
Still a few bugs to work out. Seems the navigation system breaks down after it has seen battle, causing it to wander aimlessly, and eventually become lost. It is especially vulnerable to attack by more than one enemy simultaneously, which in some simulations has forced the commander to surrender the vessel.
I also hear that they have started CAD drawings for the Seawolf-class nuclear submarine SSN George W Bush. Not only is it designed to be isolated from and out of contact with the rest of the world for long periods of time, I hear that it will have a new command feature: all fleet orders, battle information, or damage reports are first filtered through the boat’s Media Relations Officer before being passed to the commander.
File Under: Humor.

Old is such a relative thing.
Where I grew up, in the British Columbia Interior, an old building is one that dates from between 1860 and 1900.
In the San Francisco Bay Area, you might see some buildings from the 1840s, maybe some Spanish ones that are older.
In Massachussetts/New England, there are some buildings that date from the 1620-1640.
In the UK, the new church in a village may have been constructed in 1610, to replace the one built in 1078.
In Cairo or Jerusalem, people don’t blink when you say that you live in a house built in 948 AD.
Old is so relative…and so fleeting.

Jeff Nolan and I have had our differences, mainly over Prop. 13. But his posting that links to an article listing the reasons why people are fleeing California cities (or the state entirely) is heartening.
Not for California. But for those of us who decided that we couldn’t stay there and live in one of the world’s richest economies, and tolerate a third-world public infrastructure.

Jeff Nolan sums it up nicely:
gee, ya think?
He is referring to the C|Net Article here.
Siebel is a company that just epitomizes the arrogance and greed that ran the valley for those fleeting years, and that has been punished so mightily since 2000.
I do not hold a warm place in my heart for Siebel.
As Darren states: Universe Collapses — Picasso on sale at Costco.
I hang my head in shame and seek a South Pacific Island to flee to.
