haha, a personal post. i dont really like to post things about me. i like link-comment. which this follows, but i had to blog this. because one way or the other this is my foreseeable future. and the description seems dead on. though currently i work in the legal field and the atmosphere is MUCH more laid back.
so now friendster is sponsoring tv shows. maybe they have been for awhile. i dont really follow friendster all that much. i have a profile, etc, but i don’t do much on it. but now you can check out a friendster blog from the cast of the fox show “stacked.” pam anderson, paget brewster, chris lloyd all have them. i’m sure others do too, but i didn’t bother to click and read.
Google Video Upload Program FAQ
i dont know if i’d ever take advantage of this, but i find it neat that you can charge ppl to download/watch the video.
oh and yes i have noticed that 99% of my posts fall in the “???- random” category. this weekend i’ll make up some new categories so as to better organize the posts, if only for myself, bc as of right now i cant imagine anyone reads this mindless drivel
lot of nytimes links this morning…
that seat blows. better stores have nice lounge chairs or leather club chairs. that are positioned next to a plasma (which is never on news or sports, but rather a looped advertisment or branded entertainment of the retailer). still the seat is much appreciated.
The New York Times - Reach Out and Touch No One
how many ppl do you know that actually fake the phone conversation, for any reason (not wanting to talk to ppl around them, getting a point across, have some sort of fake excuse for some behavior)?
me, my social isolation tool of choice is the ubiquitous ipod. love me some ipod. put on the cans and block out the world. nevermind that for some reason ppl continue to talk to me even when they see my earbuds in. it makes zero sense.
The New York Times - The New Peacocks
from the nytimes new thursday style section. yes men’s clothing (not just tailored) has really taken off in the past few years. which means everything costs more, etc. but this article talks at least a little about the move toward big business and the corporate world etc.
But ultimately the timing of the suit’s return suggests a social shift, toward a climate of conservatism obviously, but also to a culture of money and business
but doesn’t it kind of seem like a return to the 80s in general. things more fitted, more preppy (for lack of a better term), more self-centered, more about wealth and displays of wealth (fake or not). not that i mind, seeing as how i’ve always considered myself to be somewhat of a dapper man. and yes, i love suits with real button holes (even though now “low end” suits even have this bc it’s something that ppl at least used to equate with high quality and cost), colored (though custom colored is a bit much for me) or unique jacket linings (i also love something i saw on a thom brown suit once, which is colored lining under the collar. yes no one will ever see it, but still), but i dont know if i’d enjoy a return to the 80s, or the attitude of the 80s at least.
