Philosophy Slam
Still philosophizing after all these years.
Thursday, October 12, 2006
So I've always done the htmling here by hand, except for creating the original template, which is tweaked a bit by me, but now blogger has all these new and fascinating features for new blogs, and I'm just not on board yet. I should be doing all sorts of updating, and I just haven't yet.
Plus, there are a bazillion things I should have on my sidebar (which, a recent library tech seminar informed me, is WRONG because "millenials," some obscure generational term I never quite understood, unless it means the rude, bratty, snotty mid-teens who hang around the library in their sullen way, prefer to read in an "F" format. They can deal. The rest of us do).
So am I a technophobe for sitting here, adding CONTENT, instead of putting more cherries on top of the sundae? Or do I keep adding on content, such as it is (my content isn't good enough to be ice cream-- I guess it's more like lite frozen yogurt or something). The middle ground is technically the whipped cream, but I don't do anything well enough to deserve the title of that particular creamy, rich, squeezed-out-of-a-can Redi-Whip glory, so there goes all my hard symbol-whatever work.
And now I'm craving a sundae, no cherries (don't like them-- technophobe again?) or nuts (I am plenty nuts on my own, thankyouverymuch).
Sigh.
Signing off with dreams of saturated fat glory . . .
I'll probably wake up with a killer case of acid reflux, just because of this ice cream fantasy.
And yes, my glass IS half empty. Also, the water in it is poisoned.
Pascal: The present is never our end. The past and the present are our means, the future alone our end. Thus we never actually live, but hope to live, and since we are always planning how to be happy, it is inevitable that we should never be so.
