A hundred years from now

Again, going through some papers, I found this scrawled note. After some research, I hopefully found the correct author.

A Hundred Years From Now
It will not matter what your bank account was,
the kind of job you had,
what sort of house you lived in,
or the kind of car you drove.
But the world may be different
because you were
important in the life of a child.

- Dr. Forest E. Witcraft
(American scholar, teacher and scout leader, 1894-1967)

Terence McKenna

I was going through some books on the shelf today, when I unsuspectingly ran across a hand-scrawled quote from Terence McKenna...

If we're all God's chil'en, how come we've rigged the Earth with dynamite and we're flipping coins to see who gets to set it off?

Hmmm...

The bright side of the NHL lockout

Okay, I'm trying to look on the bright side. One benefit of the NHL lockout is the increased attendance at WHL games, especially in cities like Vancouver, with teams in both leagues.

Another was Phoenix Coyote Brett Hull's appearance on Saturday Night Live last night. When Weekend Update co-anchor Amy Poehler asked him how he felt about the recent move in Canada to legitimize same-sex marriage, he said, "That's what happens in Canada when there's no hockey. Guys have more time to hang out, talk about their feelings and fall in love with each other. I have nothing against it, but I'd rather be playing hockey."

Donna the Buffalo shows archive

I heard about these guys at an RSA reception earlier this year. Thanks to the guy from the East Coast wearing the terrapin shirt.

Donna the Buffalo has set lists and MP3s archived online. There are some great cuts here. If you're into Grateful-esque jam bands, check it out.

DJ Dangermouse - The Grey Album download

The Grey Album has been out for a while, but I just got around to DL'ing it. I'm not much of a hip-hop fan, but I really enjoyed this. Guess this is really fusion, being DJ Danger Mouse's remix of Jay-Z's The Black Album and the Beatles' White Album. Legal battle's are still simmering with EMI and Sony, so DL while it's still available.
