Weekend

Super Great Weekend !

Weather is very sunny and pretty but chilly. SOME people seem to LIKE it !

Me, I'll take about 20 degrees higher, thank you very much.

Happy to report that I successfully repaired my friend's refrigerator door shelves thanks to knowing about a strong glue a guy-who-can-fix-things told me about----JB Weld Epoxy. Good stuff, and sandable after it hardens. I got mine at Home Depot, so it is easy to find.



Ted sent photos of an awesome DAC-ART Chateau nearing completion in TN. Click link to see the details on this nice house. Hope you have broadband, as Ted uploaded HUGE photos.
The color of this house is probably close to the color my new blocks will be to build the addition. Not pinkish like my current place. But, hey, that is ok, as it will just look like the stone came out of the quarry in a different century. If you have ever been to Europe, you'd be familiar with buildings constructed from various materials from different eras.

I have a bunch of web projects to get busy on, but have had a hard time getting focused.

What is it called ? What's it cost. Where do you go to get it ?

Class distinctions and social networking sites

Interesting read: An excerpt: A month ago, the military banned MySpace but not Facebook. This was a very interesting move because the division in the military reflects the division in high schools. Soldiers are on MySpace; officers are on Facebook. Facebook is extremely popular in the military, but it's not the SNS of choice for 18-year old soldiers, a group that is primarily from poorer, less educated communities. They are using MySpace. The officers, many of whom have already received college training, are using Facebook. The military ban appears to replicate the class divisions that exist throughout the military. I can't help but wonder if the reason for this goes beyond the purported concerns that those in the military are leaking information or spending too much time online or soaking up too much bandwidth with their MySpace usage.

Is It Just ME?

Two odd phrases keep popping up in print that just seem weird to me. Here is one: "I am absolutely appalled that another computer containing the personal information of veterans has gone missing ," said Sen. Rick Santorum, a Pennsylvania Republican. Why not say "is missing" ? Doesn't "has gone" imply some action on the part of the computer? And our local newspaper recently had headlines that said: "City looks to buy land on Ft. Morgan Road" Is "looks to buy" an accepted English phrase for "considers" or similar? Maybe it is, but both of those phrases sound rather like Granny Clampett to me. Your opinion?
