SomBlock In Reverse: 8/10/09
1. Happy Monday is to me as happy maggots are to meat. What? Too early for analogies?
2. A journey of a thousand miles should begin with an oil change and tire rotation. Screw walking, man.
3. It’s rare that you can be happy when your work has several holes in it, but I’m making it happen: http://yfrog.com/5ewatzj
4. Hope you enjoyed that last photo. It’s not me but rather my stunt artist. Sadly, he died last night in a freak cadmium red skydive accident.
5. It’s usually a good chance that if my train grinds to a halt, it will be right in the middle of a 3G dead zone.
6. And now, with glass half full: It’s rarely a bad omen that if my train accelerates to a rush, it will be left of the edge of a 3G hotspot.
7. You might think that optimism can change the world, and that’s right theoretically. But I’m doubtful and thus think there’s no fucking way.
8. Somfucius say: in steamy subway station, mail room clerk who works in shorts gets revenge for one moment on executive wearing suit and tie.
9. There’s been an ant crawling on this guy’s collar in front of me, and it reminded me of this classic train story: http://bit.ly/pMOdL
10. This morning’s SomBlock is sponsored by the blast of cool A/C when you first walk in from the heat. Oh yeah, that’s it baby, get colder now.
