Cycling to SF via skyline, -2000 calories. Dim sum gorgefest, +1500 calories. Contemplating how to spend the surplus.
Rejoining the world after fighting a fever for the last 36 hours. Looks like the bay area turned into Waterworld while I was sick.

"Haven't we learned this lesson hundreds of times before? If everything is dependent on a central operator, then eventually everything is going to fall apart. Despotism, absolute monarchies, Fascism, abusive relationships, mainframe computing, the buggers from Ender's Game, the Borg.... the list goes on, as far back and as far forward through human history as you wish to go." - Doug from Bookmarklet
@vanhoucke So many languages have nouns with grammatical gender; it's time we created one with "grammatical sexual orientation", too!

(Ouch. I guess I should seek out a city with more museums so that I can truly live, instead of all this hanging out I do.): "There is, I’ve found, precious little to do here, particularly if you’re not inclined towards sports or the outdoors. I recall asking several locals what exactly people did on a Saturday afternoon, at a loss after having gone to the scant few museums and walked around the few worthwhile neighborhoods. “Hang out in the park or sleep, I guess” was the common answer. And indeed, that’s what many people do: the Mission’s Dolores Park is filled with idling throngs, weekend after weekend, soaking up the sun, chatting, drinking, smoking, existing. Nothing wrong with the simple pleasures of friends and good weather, but there’s more to life than living from one hangout to the next." - Doug
Perfect night for the PA Moonlight 10k!

Beautiful weather today on the peninsula, reminds me of New England autumns. Hope it lasts!

The Places We Live - http://www.theplaceswelive.com/
"Jonas Bendiksen's documentation of life in slums the world over has resulted in a touring multimedia exhibition. The installation for " The Places We Live" was developed and produced in co-operation with the Nobel Peace Center in Oslo, Norway, where it was launched in June 2008. Life size images and audio segments in the exhibition help create the experience of a personal encounter with the slum dwellers. Each slum is represented by one room, where four walls are built out of rear projection canvas. Each room contains a cycle displaying five households. For each one, a sound recording containing statements from the inhabitants is showered down from the overhead speakers. Between each display of a household, images and soundscapes of the environment surrounding the visitor." - Doug from Bookmarklet
Saw this stunning exhibit yesterday at the National Building Museum in DC. It looks like the web site has the same images and audio as the physical exhibit, though it can't compete with the level of immersion. - Doug
Spent a 4 hour layover in Long Beach walking to town and back in the baking sun. Back of neck regrets decision.
Headed back to SF from DC. Northeast corridor trip was a blast -- reconnected with 23 friends and family in 5 cities over 14 days!
Great to see @RevCampbell. He introduced me to three DC gems -- the Building Museum, Newseum, and Hirshhorn sculpture garden
@RevCampbell But it's definitely a nice way to travel, and I don't mean that ironically. (Though on Twitter, how can you know for sure?)
@RevCampbell Yeah, the Acela props were meant ironically. It's not your irony filter that's broken, though, it's me.
I don't understand why people are scared of socialism. Is it because it has the word socialism in it?
