Poems
No poetry here for awhile. I think I’ll point out two poems previously written that I think were slightly overlooked.
The first, The Need to Succeed, appeared on Aug 29 and I thought the hidden words were so obvious that comments would come quickly so quickly in fact I gave it only a day before posting, Of Expectations. After a great deal of time passed I went back and highlighted a few things in Of Expectations and connected the two poems with trackbacks.
I thought instead of pointing out there there was more to the poems than what you first see that I would write more and more of these until someone caught on but I haven’t had the creative energy to keep it up. Don’t go looking for anything earth shattering or life changing. It’s not that deep!
Political
From Salon: World to Americans: You’re OK — it’s Bush we hate But if we reelect the least popular man on the planet, we could find ourselves being despised, too.
Because the United States exercises such decisive influence over the lives of everyone else on this planet, some foreign opinion leaders have begun suggesting that non-Americans should also be able to vote for who runs the United States.
if Americans vote Bush out on Nov. 2, it will signal the world that its affection for us is both recognized and reciprocated. And that — to borrow a line from one of the movies that have made American culture so beloved around the world — could be the start of a beautiful friendship
In the Men’s Room
This work safe movie (must watch!) demonstrates why men’s restrooms are more efficient than the ladies. For the ladies reference, there is a disposable travelaid “TravelMate” that disposes some of the concerns for lack of cleanliness described in Rowan’s post by providing the same conveniences that the guys have. Restrooms.org used to have a tutorial on ‘How to Pee Standing’.
Ponderings of a Princess have a related discussion on whether or not peeing in the shower is ok right now. Thanks Tim!

This Morning
Slept hard last night. Am struggling with being focused and productive today and not totally tripping out.
This is one of those days where I could really use a strong technical sales person working with me and a programming intern.
