There are two very different ways to read/perform Shakespeare.

One very obvious and one much lower carrying a level of subtext that must be read with the opposite intent. In doing so, one can insult the very nature of behavior while surreptitiously teaching a very difficult lesson.

Today, I find my inner nature at odds with my ability as a performer to relegate the ability to transcend the obvious.

So, now.. one of the most argued passages of Shakespeare that is likewise one of the most misperformed audition pieces.
The contents within neither signify nor do not signify my view of the world

My standing rules for random IM message senders.

This is taken from my IM profile on AIM.. I’d been meaning to write this down.. Here’s an early draft

I don’t actually expect anyone to read this but here are my basic rules for IM. The problem is that the average person who has a personality that messages me out of the blue will either not violate these rules in the first 3 femtoseconds of the conversation and I won’t be motivated to send the link. OR… The person will violate at least 2 in an even shorter amount of time and is probably too damned stupid or illiterate to make it through this paragraph let alone the rest to figure out why I just don’t have time for their waste of space on the internet.

The list so far…

Um, another net app?!?

So, Google now has an online spreadsheet. To go along with its online word processor and its online mapping software.

Meanwhile, you can go to your online feed management system to post to your online blog.

Anyone who knows me knows that I am well connected. I have net coming out of my ears. We’re talking Cell phone, WiFi, Gigabit endowed laptop. Ooh, baby.

But guess what. Every now and then, there isn’t a signal. The mountain is too high, the farm to wide, the airport too expensive, or worse… the plane. And then what?

All my files are inaccessible or worse… The application itself is web based.

Until we can assure 24/7 access to the internet (planes, trains and automobiles)… Web based apps are still a nifty curiosity… and little else.

Just my $0.02

I feel like such a traitor

I’m making this post with Semagic. That would be the LJ client for XP.

I’m actually stuck in XP on my home computer because I think I thrashed my OS X partition.

It’s really a weird feeling.

I’m moving through some changes…

A while ago (Nov ’03) to be exact I posted the lyrics to a song by Yes that I really like called, “Changes”

About a week ago I began to make some rather drastic changes in my life. One of which was beginning to swear off something that was bad for me. This wasn’t easy and caused some bumps and bruises.

For better or worse I will continue this in the next 2-3 weeks or so when I take an active attempt at making another change in my life. We’ll only have to hope that it is in accord with my true Will.

Overall, the changes will be subtle but in some cases… they will be more than obvious. I keep contemplating making some very personal posts (probably under heavy filtering) but then again, how many things have I started or promised on LJ only to let slip away.

Hrmn… will contemplate… Maybe more later.
