a marvelous, fooked up world

jawnbcI fairly marvel at technology, most probably things my nieces and nephews view as rather quotidian and unimpressive. As soon as we get the phone that defies the space/time continuum (when I dial here at 6pm, it rings there, in real time, at 6pm), I may stop revisiting the Apple website for new opportunities for commodity fetishism.
Concomitantly, I find the news of the world--elections, terrorism, hurricanes--disturbing. Yet I remain resolute both in terms of optimism and a commitment to endeavour to make the world a wee bit better. Which I think isn’t a terribly tall order and doesn’t require much from me. On the other hand, a couple of my colleagues are getting right up my nose lately. I’m not being nearly as healing, caring and sharing with them.
I’m not much for platitudes. Nevertheless, I need to be part of the solution rather than part of the problem. Which means it can’t be all about me, or me and Max.
Stay tuned . . .
