  • I placed my defense in Google spreadsheets and will deliver from there (but have a backup). I figured it was apropo given my topic. #
  • I’m tired of the outcry against video on flickr. The videos post in great resolution (better than youtube). It’s fun and a useful tool. #
  • there are always outcries on flickr against anything new..remember being an oldtimer? being bought by yahoo? having a new uploader? #
  • choose your battles, people. Not everything has to be a fight… #
  • @chrisnixon exactly. It’s an opportunity. :-) #
  • @calanan hey, thanks for the comment on my blog last night. :-) It’s a big move for me. #
  • @beebo_wallace I rarely use the web interface. BUT…you definitely *are* weird. Heh heh. #
  • @beebo_wallace now see, that’s just not right! Damn you! ;-) #
  • @calanan thank you! I’m going to miss the beautiful west. However, there is much to be seen in MN. Plus, you know, that whole school thing. #
  • @beebo_wallace you did. I invited you up to join me. :-) I will definitely be trying it. #
  • @calanan oh, yeah…I listen to a lot of their programs. Good stuff! Thanks! #
  • @beebo_wallace I’m DEFINITELY going to Twins games. You’re on. It will be a blast. Heh heh. gossiping about @calanan = fun. ;-) #
  • @calanan dogs are the biggest gossips. sheesh. Now he’ll talk to his friends and it will spread like wildfire. #
  • @calanan I’m sure @beebo_wallace’s dog has heard it by now. Their network is fast. #
  • @beebo_wallace *crackin’ up* You and @calanan have me laughing this morning. :-) omigod…you *are* weird! #
  • and, that being said, it’s time for me to get dressed and go do that little thing called a thesis defense. Later, y’all. #

  • snow, rain, sun, rinse and repeat. I don’t think the weather knows what it is doing today. gotta love spring. #
  • My favorite thing about 4C’s: books from publishers. Extremely dumb on my part, though, given that I”m moving and just have to pack them up. #
  • @phdaisy an anthology by Chris Anson, the Rachel Corrie autobiography, and am waiting for a writing book to be sent to me :-) #
  • @phdaisy that’s the one. :-) #
  • @beebo_wallace where haven’t you lived? ;-) #
  • @beebo_wallace well, let’s see what we can do about that, shall we? :-) #
  • [daily photo] don’t wait http://tinyurl.com/4ftbar #

part 1 of a farewell to arizona

I will be moving to minnesota in july to begin a doctoral program and I want to chronicle that move

while most of the videos will be posted to my youtube profile, I thought it would be fun to share a few here as well

public service announcement

Just in case you didn’t get one of these videos in junior high school, I want to share with you a sex-ed type movie from Walt Disney, who are masters of animation (but where is that brilliance in this?). Probably not safe for work even though it really is a harmless video (I mean, it does talk about…shhhhh…the vagina…)
