i’ve been staying up late again- got to bed around 2 last night. got up in time to miss class. although the shower felt great. i’ve been doing that thing where one wakes up in the morning, does a quick review of planned activities, and is totally unexcited by any of them. before i get further into the depressive blather, let me speak on a subject that excites me:
Alirags.com! Our friend Ali has started a web site to promote her bag making business. She has some great designs and always adds those unique details that make each bag an investment slash heirloom instead of a gimmicky mass produced product. In short, her bags rock. Like basalt. And here’s my own promotional spin on the whole deal: If you buy a bag or get someone else to buy a bag from Ali, I will pay you 10 percent or 5 bucks for each bag- whichever is more. Just drop my name to Ali when ordering and I’ll get some money to you. So you could make some sweet cash this way if you got that smooth sales persona going on. Start your holiday shopping early this year.
I found two very interesting articles I would like to share with you. The first is by a black lady who has some very good reasons for disliking Black History Month. It’s very compelling. Read it here. The other is an article about the marriage of a jewish israeli and palestinian muslim. there are some profound statements to be found in this short news clip, especially from the female. Read it here.
Hope you enjoy those. Both more on the humanistic bent than technology. That that- that’s all folks.
