fun links again...

- Check out my friend Marybeth's music.  A year or so ago she was just dreaming about songwriting, and now she's got streaming files on the internet, entering songwriting contests, and performing in her adopted home in Germany with a group of other expatriates in the group 'Far From Home.' 

I turned my niece onto her song 'Waiting to Fly' (my favorite) and now said niece has it on her ipod.  Be the first on YOUR block to hear it.  (cause i swear, some day the dixie chicks are going to record it...)

- Google maps - and particularly the satellite version - are pretty cool.  And kinda freaky too.  Makes me think of what an old lover once said (he'd been in the military a few years before, so i think this influenced this perspective...) that if people wanted to find out stuff about you, they could.  Google maps makes me realize how close that is to reality.  If I can zero in on my old neighborhood in Berkeley and the house I lived in when I learned about infinity - maybe the evil empire could look in though my windows where I live now and catch me in subversive activities.  (or maybe just watching bad tv...) 

- When people ask me how old I am, I don't lie (then again, i'm not tellin' if they don't ask), but for the last several years if someone asks how old I FEEL, I say 37.  I think I've been happily stuck at 37 for ... uh ... almost 6 years now (you do the math).  37 was a good year; I hit a personal/psychic kinda stride then...felt like I'd come into myself in a whole new way.  Well, now with this fun quiz, I find that I'm actually 31.  Hm.  Go figure.  ;)

Yay -- I'm only 26. I LOVE that quiz :-)

That Google stuff really is something! Like I heard someone say the other day ... life is getting just like on the Jetsons ... except we're still waiting for the flying cars.

... I love those 80s shows on VH1 too. The comments are just as funny as the clips.
