Lost flickr episode + Views of Burning Man



It seems my attempts at flickr never made it to the postings. This gives me a chance to go back and consider what I personally would like to see. I like the spectacular and colorful. Burning man is certainly a great annual spectacle. Hmmm, maybe I'll go someday.

Home Stretch

Week 10: Yay! Yipee! I've made it this far. If I can keep my wits about me, I should get through this with a modicum of dignity. And speaking of dignity, I can think of no surer way to lose it than to muck about in the overly-eager world of friends online at MySpace. I did create an account there but, I was rather unspecific about personal facts.
I'm not sure how we would use MySpace for our purposes, but I'd love to create a site called Newburgh Noir and see how weird our local MySpacers really are. Just a thought. Maybe, I wouldn't really want to know -- "Who knows what evil lurks in the heart of Men?"

Podcast -- BBC Scotland


Last week, I went looking for an interesting podcast. I found a few good ones (Meditation - for wellness, Bad Buddhist Radio and Alan Watts) but, I was unable to install them, so I went "mainstream" to the BBC of Scotland.
I once visited Scotland for 2 weeks and I hope to go back again. Above is a view of "New Town" including Princes Street and the shopping area as seen from the Edinburgh Castle. Library Lass has already given us a view of the castle on the wiki.
