So a friend just bought his first copy of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras... "with full-on Sanskrit squiggles" and I remembered a time when I thought I was going to learn all those squiggles... I slightly updated the page and here it is... maybe I'll remotivate
Made them in Apple's Pages (http://www.apple.com/iwork/pages/), using an English keyboard with the "Keyboard Viewer" installed...in case anyone cares...

Choice
We turn up the volume on the voices in our heads and try to make sense of the babble. On a journey around the country to understand how emotion and logic interact to guide us through our options, we ponder how we get through the million choices and decisions we make every day. Forget free will, some important decisions could come down to a steaming cup of coffee.

One of my favorite episodes of one of my favorite podcasts... having a hard time making decisions today so seems like a good thing to post!

Klosterman, Chuck ((tags: Quote, importance)
_Killing Yourself to Live: 85% of a True Story_. New York: Scribner , 2006 (pg 92) I have traditionally argued that rock criticism is almost always
unimportant. But what I've grown to realize is that –whenever people
argue over the "importance of rock criticism"–they are not arguing
about rock critiscism. They are arguing over the definition of the
word /important/. Emphasis his. Discuss...

Golden Gate Park / Sept. 9, 2009
Another "last week at this time" post... with one exception the photos are of the Japanese Tea Garden. It was a reset to soak in all that green. It was a fun walk. I got lost and had to have a really nice guy tending the adorable Children's Garden with his dalmatian let me out a secret gate. Going down the hill to Lincoln in flip-flops got my feet dirtier than a whole week in the desert.

The TimeCycle and the beginning of catching up
I'm back and every day slightly less dusty. Here are some initial pictures of the TimeCycle. There is a flickr group that will be aggregating pictures from others in the camp who spent more quality camera time with our lovely vehicle. That group will be shown off at www.TimeCycle.org by the end of the week with a form to sign up for updates. I'll be back posting (gasp!) a little about last week in the next couple of days...
