Whiplash, and David Hewlett

[wraithfodder]

Yes, i'm developing whiplash from the constant ping-pong news of Anna Nicole Smith's 'who gets the body' scenario coupled with Britany Spears 'gone wild and bald and bashing a car with an umbrella.' Aiee..... can't the news focus on more interesting stuff, like the colossal squid hauled up - http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/6385071.stm - I mean, look at the size of that sucker! Er, those suckers! Hmm, it's weird that so many hither unseen deep sea creatures have been getting caught lately. Wonder what's going on...


Meanwhile, David Hewlett is just expanding his web empire - he's now got a MySpace page!

details the details, er, and you can visit him at http://www.myspace.com/dhewlett

Ack, can't believe I'm going to visit MySpace. I've done so well to avoid it....

I also had managed to avoid My Space. DH is such a bad influence :-)

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Very bad influence. Tsk tsk ;)

I <3 Myspace!

Have you set up a profile there yet?

[rocksalted.livejournal.com]

Hmm. Yeah. I followed him to myspace. *hangs head in shame* Good news is people are trying to get him to come to LJ instead. XP

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he needs a live journal! It's for the creative folk ;)

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Nope, not yet. Too busy with other stuff and my My Space would consist of basically empty space... hmm, there's an idea....

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

I caved. I made one. I have no idea what to do with it.

sadly what i think is going on is over-fishing

*hugs her ocean friends*

Heh! Me too! I did some coding on it and of course friended DH, but no blog entry yet. It's all very overwhelming ... the choices on offer for generating code and tweaking it.

Britney! Anna Nicole! Squid! What a big, wide, wonderful world. I embrace everything in it, especially things with big, huggable suckers!

Yes, it's been quite the week. You'd think that everything centered on silly (and/or dead) celebrities and extraordinary invertebrates. But, actually, my week's highlight was this excellent linguine recipe I found.

It's the little things that make life so enjoyable.

Heh, I keep thinking about tire-sized calamari after reading the squid article ;)

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

How do you friend someone?

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Definitely agree on that. The oceans will be empty soon at the rate people fish...

[liresius.livejournal.com]

Gah! I'm using LJ terminology, but when you click on "subscribe to this blog" the person gets an email message saying you would like to be their friend etc etc (that's if the person has that option turned on in their settings).

I borrowed Blair's funny hat, snuck in, read the blog, snuck, pretty sure I wasn't recognized...

[annieb1955.livejournal.com]

and of course I meant snuck out. Lines like that just kinda lose their humor when you screw up the wording.
