Things I've changed my mind about

When I was a kid I always lusted after the variety of nasty looking pocket knives in see through cases in hardware stores. My parents would only let me own a homey boyscout knife. Now that I can buy my own, I'm not very interested in all those nasty looking knives in the case.

Becker Raves

Sound of ice cracking when you pour in liquid of room temperature
the way milk poured into coffee disappears to the bottom and then appears and spreads through the top.
88 Iranian professors protest violent tactics by govt., saying "violent attacks on defenseless students is not a sign of strength."
West Virginia figure of speech....the car needs washed; the house needs cleaned
Droste's hot chocolate
Facebook as a way to keep track of casual friends...normally I'd just lose them
Obama's ability to inspire....will that survive his waffling?
Roz and Ann Payne organized a 350 vigil in Morgantown to support significant climate change in Copenhagen
All the internet action working for comperhensive health care reform.
I love writing this blog....way above my expectations. (Does that count?)

Becker RANTS!!

Pre recorded and synthesized bass lines with a band. Dead Dead Dead
Male rant number 1..... It seems to me if I am talking to a woman at an event and another woman comes over, she frequently bursts right in and starts a new conversation. Seems that a little more politeness would be to hang around, listen and find a way to fit into the conversation. As with the one below, I believe there is a little gender action going here.
Male rant number 2: Another possible gender/civility occurrence... I don't care for the interaction when a woman friend comes over to me at an event, and before saying, "Hello, how are you?" Says, "where is your wife?"
Opening a new cd package, especially the ones with the code taping the halves together on the side....especially when you're eager to hear new music!
People who can't drive in snow (isn't that crotchety of me?)
Uganda passes death penalty for gays law following visit by three US fundamentalists speaking on dangers of "gay"
...when people turn perfectly nice nouns into verbs. I call this verbizing. ... as in bureaucratize, transition
People talking on cell phones at check out or in restaurant
Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley,, and JP Morgan Chase hand out $29.7 billion in bonuses in 09. That's a record.. Wreck the economy and then receive socialism for the rich. That's a pretty good deal!
Blue Dog Dems willingness to sacrifice all Health care for narrow issues!
