I really love Bukowski. Is that wrong?

Does anyone know if the George Galloway hearing is archived anywhere? Audio or video. I'd really like to see it.

Weekends, the warriors emerge.

Valliant men mount noble steeds and throw themselves over the edge.

Some stay upright. Some don't.

But victory is sweet.

My son and I have actually stopped our normal give and take on RSS and open source (his blog) and hacking and DRM and instead been talking about baroque versus classic, Gianlorenzo Bernini and Francesco Borromini and Michaelangelo Buonarroti and how amazing it is that they could sustain the energy and vision to complete the Basilica de San Pietro over a 120 year period, ten generations or more. It makes the sustained 1-2 year efforts we sometimes put into software seem so insignificant and the the fact that we sometimes don't put enough effort into making it really beautiful even more criminal.

"most of the web development community don't even know what a GET is.."

Then most of the web developement community needs to start looking for another job. Repeat after me, "Would you like fries with that?"

Ha ha. It is fun to call people incompetent.
