A bit of quick business, as the Wire has been oh so thankfully renewed
for a fourth season. Apparently it will focus more on the mayoral
race and the rising power of Mario, the remaining major drug
dealer. It's going to be a year until it is seen again, but it
will be well worth the wait.
On another note, I have become increasingly fascinated by the writing of Malcolm Gladwell. I just recently finished reading his book, Tipping Point - which I found fascinating and have reserved his recent release, Blink. I then was listening to a pretty decent interview on this recent book over at IT Conversations. If you have a few mintues, try reading this article on his site for a quick look into what he writes and talks about.
I could write pages about his ideas, but I should be sleeping. Why does
work have to so consistently the way of leading an interesting
life? I would love for nothing more than to expand my mind
- in the reading way, not the Timothy Leary way, but instead...
never mind. Rant aborted, for now. Unfortunately, such
interesting reading also manages to completely sap my free time so that
I never get anything of substance accomplished - i.e. taxes,
website stuff, computer building, web-hosting credit card processing
. So it goes. Po-to-weet!
