Befuddled artist & marginally-productive cynic vaguely attempting to hang around & engage with smart, creative people to improve his perspectve. No, really.

Old school telephone call to the family, all together on speakerphone on their end, while they enjoyed genuine home made hand-cranked ice cream with their not-sore arms. Now, off to the beach where I hope it clears up like it did last nite so we can catch some fireworks from the sand. Always awesome, like a theater of fireworks over the ocean.
Don't get me wrong, here: I seriously <333 Brubeck. Many of the melodies use a stereotypic "traditional" Japanese (pentonic?) scale &/or style, but are not Japanese. In today's sensitive climate, does it seem like "culture theft" or some other nonsense?

Oh, hey, look at that! It shows I'm masochistically FFing from my iPhone! FriendFeed, I just can't quit you.
"Billy Mays, the loud, fast-talking pitchman who epitomized the infomercial spokesman, died Saturday at his home in Tampa. Mays, who would have turned 51 Sunday, was found by his wife. Police do not suspect foul play."

My reacton was similar. Sometimes it takes a hard look at things it's hard to look at to see how hard I make things for myself sometimes.

That's true, though, I think we let other people control us at least some of the time.

I guess I usually get excited about the "we let" part. Even of I'm doing it subconsciously, it bugs me that I have even a that much personal endorsement behind being controlled.

How cool is this? Just got off a Skype call with Dad from our regular Sunday grilling at the 'Venice Social Club' (my buddy down by the beach). Happy Fathers' Day to everyone!!
Hmm. So, when I "like" something on Boxee (and set it to send updates to FF), it makes up a last.fm "similar artists" search URL as the link to the song? Cool idea, I guess, except it didn't work in this case. Still doing some fine-tuning on the music side, I reckon. :-)

Other than a little latency, thinking I'm going to like TweetDeck as my iPhone Twitter client. So far, so good.
In definite agreement there...I have no issues and I'm on the 3G, not 3GS :)

I find it crashes a lot, but then I do have 8 columns running. I find Tweetie is best for a quick check of Twitter while on the go. Tweetdeck is better for long bus rides or when my girlfriend's hogging my laptop.

Big, thick, low gray clouds & cool breezes -- almost seems like rain could fall any minute now. Let's hope!
