Who knew?

My friend X just sent me this email that has all these sites where you can get random information and images. This whole idea really appeals to me, and I'm not exactly sure why. I am, and have always been a big believer in the "shit happens" theory, but, at the same time, I am fascinated by patterns, and am actually fearful of chaos. Maybe there is wisdom in the unplanned, sanctuary in serendipity. Maybe I am thrilled by the mind's desperate power to make sense of the illogical, the unintelligible, the incomprehensible. Whatever. I just spent hours on the flickr site, looking at other peoples photos, marvelling at the beauty, creativity, emotion and wonder they captured. So cool! If you have the time and are so inclined, check these out:

Does anyone know if there is a site where I can pick up random music?

  1. Kissinger is cool!

    The nice thing about being a celebrity is that when you bore people, they think it's their fault.
