Ooohhhh dear

I just dont get the mania over college football. I try, but i just dont care. It is our homecoming this weekend and all of the undergraduates, alumni, and grad students are out in full force. The game isnt until tonight and people have been drunkenly stumbling past my house since 11 oclock. I didnt really understand it in undergraduate school either to be honest although i did partake in some of the activities. Drank my wieght and stumbled home with random strangers in tow. Although other times i sat on porches drinking a beer and heckling the drunken sorority and frat. sadly this year (absent isabel, lita, and danielle) i am not going to sit on a porch and heckle people, although i was sitting in my living room earlier marvaling at the scenes of the apparell. I did get groceries, read digital barbarism, and will be learning XML....fun fun. I will talk about digital barbarism more because quite frankly it is probably the most ridiculous book ive read in quite some time. Its about copyright and the author hates creative commons, blogs, wikis, and open access. He is pretty blunt and its kind of awesome, but i get supper pissed about some of the stuff he says because i am a librarian after all and access for all is part of our credo.
Heres an example, " How do you attract attention to your "blog"? ( I put the word in quotation marks not in an attempt to deligitimatize it -- it is perfectly legitimate-- but to quarantine it because it is so ugly that other words should be protected from it." funny but ridiculous.
Since i am not partaking in the tailgating and general game festivities, i think i am going to make potato soup and watch the proposal......yeah, i bring a whole new level of awesomeness to life. Anyways carry on....
