What I Did Last Night in 5 Minutes or Less

I have an idea. Rather than get all bogged down in political and social and cultural commentary and such- i really don't have time to be brilliant about all that shit every day-- I've got a new bag- "What I Did Last Night in 5 Minutes or Less." I am just going to to start typing and then stop typing five minutes later. It's my experiment in self discipline and time management. It will probably be boring as shit but we'll see how it goes, shall we?

So, I'm starting my timer, and here goes...

Last night i went to pete and camille's house and drank beer and ate delicious wonderful pork. And mashed potatoes (which contained my homegrown chives) and a lovely chilled green been and grape tomato salad, (which contained my homegrown, homemade - with love - pesto). Watched a bunch of Flight of the Conchords. How funny is that shit?!? Oh crap, my 5 minutes is just about up.

Yeah, this is pretty boring. Although, interestingly, when I write under a tight timeframe, I use the word shit a lot.

It's History, Man!

I know everybody and his mother has been pushing this website, but I thought I would give it a plug, too, because I LOVE IT!

PhillyHistory.org is a mapping website that allows users to search for, view by location, and purchase thousands of historic photographs dating back to the late nineteenth century.

It is a most excellent Time Waster at work. You start searching for every place you've ever lived in Philadelphia to peep what it looked like back in the day, and before you know it, it's time for lunch! And it feels like you're learning something- it's history, man! Much more gratifying of a Time Waste than scanning TMZ to see who forgot to wear their panties today.
