Limbo

I'm in limbo. Between the busy time at the end of the last school term and the giant stress of a trip to another continent. I have a million things running through my head, and for some reason, when I lay in bed, all I can think about is this documentary I saw on HBO about lesbian moms and their kids on a cruise.

I have nothing to do during the day until 6 p.m., so I'm free, but at the same time, I want to wake up early and be productive. But here I am, 4.15 a.m., looking at the light grow brighter outside and wondering "why do I feel guilty that I"m not asleep?"

This is a brilliantly worded AP story on the travails of SF city supervisor Ed Jew.

It includes such quotes as... "There are politicians who during their first time around make mistakes and are not ready for prime time"...

and "San Francisco, a place that masks its provincialism with a cachet of sophistication"... wow. What a line!

These are usually a little bit hilarious, as evidenced by the following:

Apparently Southwest Airline's LUV had a different meaning in the 1970s. Yikes!


First day on the job at UA:


The world's NEWEST jet plane - a DC-10! Catch the Economy class lounge on the Friendship Plane... I like their little jingle at the end...



"Some of our best businessmen... are women!"

I took this with Kodak BW400CN, a funny black-and-white film that is processed the same as regular color film.

Response Bias

and online reviews. Kind of a dull subject, but what does a 5-star rating really mean? Salon looks into it today...
