I guess that makes me a geek and a spaz.

Drinking your own spit

Friday, February 9th, 2007

The following appears on page two-twoty-two of jPod:

“Years ago I read in a psychology book about this experiment in which people were asked to spit into a saucer and then drink back the spit—still warm from their mouths. Most people couldn’t do it, because the moment spit leaves your body, it’s not you any more. That’s what it’s like seeing yourself on TV—it’s like drinking your own spit. It’s not nice.”

Well, I don’t think it’s that bad.

I still haven’t watched the video of myself on The Agenda, though.

A surprising number of my friends have contacted me saying they’d seen me on the show. They were just watching TVO when I came on.

Salon totally ripping my styles

Thursday, February 1st, 2007

Salon has renamed their roundup of political opinion on the blogs, from the Daou Report to The Blog Report.

Biters. This is The Blog Report.

Ah, well. It wasn’t the most original idea in the first place. Kinda like Mr. Furley asking “What are we going to call Jack’s bistro?”

“That’s it!”

“What’s it?” (Rip-off of “Who’s on First” follows.)
