Subway
It has been years since I last rode the subway. Seattle doesn't exactly have one, and neither does Tacoma. Last time I did this, people either read a book or listened to their walkman. I look around today and see that nearly everybody is listening to an iPod, phone, and tapping away on a phone of some sort. I guess that puts me in sync with everybody else around me.
Media has taken over our lives. It occupies our work lives, our personal lives, and even the spare cycles in between.
Weekend in Jersey
My weekend in New Jersey was pretty great. Hanging out with friends and the spawn of friends is the stuff that dreams are made of. Right?
Anyway, I had a great time just chilling out, drinking a few cold ones, and having some good laughs. All on the cheap too.
Heading back to Boston on the Acela now. Hanging out in the quiet car, tapping out this entry.
Michael Jackson - Dead
Several stars have passed away in the past few days..... But Michael Jackson takes the cake on all of the monitors at SEA-TAC. The sensationalism of the media follows him to the grave.
