permalink.gif I couldn't possibly talk about it

Listened to a very interesting programme (audio replay available for at least a week) on the Radio today.  It was all about the development of polite society in 18th century England and how a new philosophy of social interaction emerged which taught people how to talk to each other (and even that they should!).  Fascinating stuff.

Find more time to pursue your passion. One common complaint I hear is a lack of time for people to pursue their passions. They want to, but life just keeps getting in the way. Here's an article with an idea for how to whittle down the things... [The Occupational Adventure (sm)]

I'm anticipating my time being squeezed to the limit in the coming months.  I'm going to be trying to keep a roof over my head, study for my new course, and persue other passions.  I think I'm going to have to be much more organised with my focus to ensure I make best use of my time.

Lance Knobel, in London, will be up at 2AM to watch tonight's 90-minute debate, at 7PM Eastern, 4PM Pacific. Adam Curry and I will do a live Trade Secrets, with Adam in Belgium, watching and commenting on the debate, blow by blow (we hope). Unfortunately the candidates are not allowed to talk to each other. Supposedly the cameras have to stay on the person speaking, but thankfully they say No Way. [Scripting News]

How pathetic is it when the candidates for president agree not to talk to each other AT A DEBATE!?!
