so i’m reading
danny o’brien’s
very amusing bit on being tasked with compiling a list of the
secrets of the well-organized geek
and i’m thinking when i’m reading the
discussion topic
that it’s appropriate that
morbus
is on danny’s list of suspects. i have no idea if morbus has any
secret geeky tools underlying his prolificness
, but there have been times over the years that i could be
convinced that he’s in about eight different places at once while
being inordinately productive and helpful.
i’m thinking this while i hop over to his
disobey nonsense network
and i see that he’s taken the
polical compass test
and appears to be solidly
leftist/libertarian
. curious to see how my own political and economic views might be
categorized, i take the test and discover that i’m also
leftist/libertarian
. that’s when kris reminds me that i’m apparently a
leftist/libertarian with a bad memory since since she claims that i
already took the test “a long time ago”. a quick
search
proves that i have indeed just taken a test that i took
nearly two years ago
. i guess the
old results
prove that some things will never change. and amusingly, it also
highlights my secret “geek” efficiency tool – a wife with a better
memory than myself.
at this point, i’m chuckling at the
small pieces loosely
joined
quality of unintentially illustrating an efficiency tool while
pondering efficient people while hopping from website to website.
and then i realize as i’m browsing around to see what else i was
doing around two years ago that i might have forgotten about that i rolled about my
syndication feeds
at around the same time.
now things are just
getting unecessarily wierd for a saturday morning since i had just
written about the
script i wrote to create the feeds
last night. and who has a hand in helping me to make sense of rss
via email? mr.
morbus iff
[ go back and read the beginning of the article to see how this
mess started ].
frightened by where this multi-layered recursive wierdness might
end, i decide that it’s probably a good idea to shut the laptop and
go play the part of the
milk maid
.
