kermit, rizzo, miss piggy love triangle?

A few nights ago,
I had one of those dreams where the next morning I was saying to myself, “where the hell did that come from?”
In my dream, Rizzo from the Muppets had assassinated Kermit and then turned the gun on himself. Apparently, Rizzo was upset with Kermit’s stealing the spotlight in all the muppet [...]

no.4 Instant Messaging–make mine Meebo!

Instant messaging,
over the years I’ve had differing feelings about this application, but probably about seven years ago, I really began to see the value of it for libraries. Around 2001, Sno-Isle started its ‘Ask a Librarian’ reference service, and part of my job at the time was to monitor it a few hours [...]

Week 3 Using the progress log

I’ve really been enjoying looking at everyone’s blogs.
Some are so pretty, and its just really interesting to me to see the templates that people have chosen and how they have gone about customizing/personalizing them. Some of the colors I would never choose for myself in a million years, but then I see them with [...]

Paramount sign

George Carlin in the 70s during the old Seven Dirty Words You Can’t Say on Television bit.

Presidents of the United States of America
There’s really nothing like those first few moments of time when you walk into concert. It always just gets my blood pumping.

PUSA @ the Paramount

Tonight, I’m going to see the Presidents of the United States of America at the Paramount.  Sweet!
Don’t know the Presidents?  Well maybe you remember this tune, “Peaches”.

I found out today that PUSA did an instore set at Easy Street Records on the 10th.  Damn!  I guess even with all the various [...]

McLovin’ it, so far.

So….
we’re nearly through two weeks of the SIL 20 for 2.0 program and I feel like I’ve learned so much about management of a blog.  There has been so much work to develop this program and I feel exhausted but lucky to be a part of it. 
This week I’ve:
