I sometimes find myself unable to sleep and so arise early to make some coffee and enjoy some early morning sensory deprivation (Except for the caffeine buzz of course) . The good part is that unlike so many people I know falling asleep is very easy. I love the feel of cool sheets on my aging limbs. But it is a fleeting moment of enjoyment as I am flying off to dreamland in just a couple of minutes.

The blog is going through big changes brought about by StumbleUpon and their rules of the road. I have no SU juice at the moment because (I guess) I was stumbling one domain (not mine) on a regular basis. And then I read recently in several places that you are penalized for doing this. They do not like groups of people helping each other along either.

And so it goes. So I am not going to review anybody I know (including myself) for awhile and see what happens. I will keep everyone up to date. This information may help some of you with your stumbling although everyone seems to know more about it than I do.

Naturally fewer folks are happening by since I went off the SU sauce. But that’s fine. In fact it’s great. This has allowed me the time and provided the motivation to do other things.

Brad and Angelina came along. I have been taking all these photos of nature as it beautifies our world and cheers us up. Suddenly the light bulb went off! Brad is beautiful! Angelina is beautiful! Charlise is beautiful! And they have a much wider audience than my ducks out on the James River. Why not include them in the festivities?

There are five parts to the video of Angelina talking about her life. She has had a pretty interesting time over the years. But they don’t fit here so I put them at PhotoLinkLove and provided the links. And all the Chris Botti music videos are over there. YouTube really is a cool thing and I am just beginning to see how cool it really has become.

And I am writing a series about my college misadventures. Part I is done and someone liked it enough to comment. Thanks very much for that. It really does mean a lot.

Don’t forget to grab a RSS feed and be here when the college stuff gets going really good. I have had the same number of feeds for months now and am convinced the thing doesn’t count correctly. Please prove me wrong. It is driving me crazy. You don’t want to see me any crazier than I already am do you?

Please grab a feed even if you don’t use it. If you have ever enjoyed something here please do it. I am begging you. And I am begging Hillary Clinton to please not call me anymore. She must have called ten times yesterday. And it knocks my home network off-line when anyone calls. Hillary! Stop knocking me off the internet! You can’t imagine what it does to my peace of mind when I look at the caller ID and see that HILLARY CLINTON ruined my download.

It makes me want to search Google Image Search for a photo of a woman whose name begins with a certain letter? HMMMmmm. What was her name again?

You didn’t win yesterday here in Virginia and it was probably because you were unplugging senior citizens from their computer brains all over the state. Here’s a suggestion that may help you in future campaigns (because your goose is in the oven for the duration of this one). DON’T CALL people on the telephone. Send them an email instead like millions of other spammers. You may have to get in line but that will get you votes as well.

I am waiting for the day when I see a presidential candidate standing in line for twenty minutes like the rest of us do all the time. That person will deserve more attention.
