Gin, Television, and Social Surplus - Here Comes Everybody via kwout

Seriously 200 billion hours squandered watching TV. Now Jeannie pointed out rightly that the people watching all that TV and the people writing long articles on the wikipedia might not be the same people. Meaning that if we were to all give up TV simultaneously the world wouldn't likely jump up and start to do useful things. Holy crap 200 billion hours of TV blows my mind.

After combing the internet for years I've finally found a toilet/sink combo at a good price available in the U.S.

If you have been wondering what you were going to get me for my birthday, wonder no longer.

I have never filled up an entire journal. I have purchased 4-6 journals hoping to fill it with witty thoughts, notes, and little drawings. I have never gotten much past page four. For some reason, I have always wanted to be the sort of person who has a bookshelf full of numbered leather journals but I can't get much beyond week one.

So my goal is to fill my little black journal I purchased today.

BTW, I realized that blogging is a little like journaling. I also keep a txt file that is much less censored than this online forum. Neither of those outlets has the cachet of a physical artifact.
