A riddle I found in some papers I have..

What runs all day and never walks,
Often murmurs, never talks;
It has a bed and never sleeps;
It has a mouth and never eats.

Guesses?

Answer: A River.

What a dizzying day. Class is back in session and it is always strange to go from a summer of no classes to a day with 4 classes. A little overwhelming at first, buying the books, figuring out where to be at what time since you dont know your schedule yet, finding and doing your reading… Then after a few minutes you realize, eh, its the same ol same ol.
Today was especially dizzying though. Just got back from a cruise and I don’t actually have my land legs back, so all day I felt like I was on a rocking ship – dizzy!

In light of the recent earthquakes I have been thinking of the safety of the areas I am in on a daily basis.  You know, school, work, home, friends homes… These days I feel as though people are more prepared for earthquakes and such.  Post Northridge earthquake it seems as though organizations have done more to be prepared for emergencies.  Adding supports to buildings, being more aware of the types of damage which may be caused, and some places are creating emergency plans, like a school safety plan.

I’m not certain how these can be adapted for the home, but it is likely best to read up on earthquake tips and follow them.  These tips include adding special valves (which shut off gas during an earthquake), using earthquake straps to secure your water heater, bolting all large furniture and book cases to walls, and familiarizing yourself with good earthquake practices (don’t try running around, you’ll fall and hurt yourself).

Hopefully the big one won’t be soon so we won’t have to test these out.

Sorry about the lack of posts.  I have been traveling lately (hawaii) and class just started.

This week’s time waster?  Something very short and simple.  This awesome video about a new image resizing technology.  I know it sounds boring, but take a quick look, imagine how much greater images can look on small devices like your cell phone or PDA if this technology was used!  Tech news is always a favorite time waster of mine.  Next week I’ll get into some of my favorite tech news sources.

Lived in LA for 20 years…..and I had my first diddy riese cookie last night….and ice cream.

I must say it was rather tasty. mmm mmm.

Also saw Lord of War – B+
It was a little sad

like a hurt lost and blinded fool

I’m looking for a new cell phone, any suggestions?

I require for it to have NO antenna, I cant stand having something poking out of my phone.

I’m also thinking perhaps cingular, so that means GSM.

So a new asian restaurant opened on Los Feliz recently. I’m hoping to check it out sometime this week, I’ll update you guys with the name and my rating.
