I’ve spent the week in San Francisco working. Until today I hadn’t had much of a chance to see anything. Today I had some free time and took a walk through China Town.

Staring at my monitor for hours and hours is no substitute.

It’s time to pick a new pope. If you don’t know how the process works check out the wikipedia’s article on the procedure for picking a pope. I’m fascinated by how it has evolved over the centuries. In honor of the occasion I’ll also mention a post on Killing the Buddha.

I love that phrase, “mutual aesthetic destruction”. I suppose every relationship has some of this whether or not you live in a 10 x 10 dorm room. I love the idea of having an aesthetic of destruction.
