Don't Do Drugs

Recently, for the purpose of seeming intelligent, I posted this to my Facebook wall:


"I found a better [than NASA's] construction graphic. It is fully clickable."
Link: USA Today

Later that day Bill Shears--Author of KiTE--sent me a private message. I'm guessing his purpose was to avoid causing me embarrassment.

"That's the same one as in the Kite page from April 12.

I have conducted an analysis.


My records indicate that I was having a bad day.


The desperation protocol required that I send down a few too many pain killers. Now the usual lag-time estimate for dispersal of the chemical substance is 20 to 30 minutes. This lag-time correlates to the time of discovering the page; during which time, I was experiencing brainial dysfunction and intoxication while operating this equipment. (graph not included)


It's all here. The computer log and my paper logs: 'My Body Book' and my 'Daily Log' of what I do each hour, and the history of Firefox.


So then, my concluding report is titled: 'I'm Stupid.'


The page actually came from you. I was surprised when I went through the browser's history. I didn't bother to count but I went to hundreds of pages that day. What's interesting and everyone talks about is how each link takes them off on another bunny trail. A flow chart of one day would cover an entire wall.
I also keep a list of stuff I'm looking for but have not yet tracked down. Internet searching is a rather sophisticated process, since results are often less than good.
Hey, that's a pretty long excuse.
Hope you're having a good day.

Good enough. It's over.


Hey I figured it was something like that. What good drugs! But look at it from my angle. I couldn't very well say, 'Hey that's the same page, are you drugged?!"


In any case, sounds like a gutless blog post. Did you link that site up to the networked blogs app on FB yet?

Next time, (it's one of them laws) you have my permission to post to my wall and ask, "Man, are you on drugs?" And, depending on the situation, you would be within your rights to end it with an interrobang.


I have not linked my blog site. I'm scared. It's like, getting caught with my pants down, while in that glass elevator at the mall....hey, bet that'd get me posted. Well, okay.


Here is a link to my wife's Myspace blog. My writing doesn't approach her skill in writing. The example I'll mention is her short blog titled, 'The Hypnotic Power of Motion'.


So now you can know that her and me both, are holding guns to each one's head.

Will do. Thanks.
