I wanted this to be a leap year. When things are going slow and you need an extra kick, a leap year makes everything fancier.
I hoped I could have another day in this February that has gone too fast before heading into the springy March and all the blossoming.
Who am I kidding? What is true is that I am quite uncertain about what I’m doing and all the things in my life and I needed some comfort in not seeing time slip by.
At least, we can enjoy this very funny video I found on Boing Boing.

Long story short, the blog is not dead.
Short story long, I would want to say (to myself since there’s no one here) I’ve been busy, which I was indeed, but the truth is I was uninspired.
Although busy, I would have had some time to write something, but the fact is I don’t have what it takes to write a diary, never had and probably never will.
Nor I am, in this specific situation, able to write about areas of my expertise or even generic knowledge. Since I don’t put my face in it, I don’t feel its worth it.
The wordpress.com choice is always a bit of a inner struggle, between the will to do more and the need not to get entangled in doing more.
I still get visits from popular misleading titles I used for a few of my first articles (I’m sorry for that), even after more than two months I wrote them. There still is somebody who (blessed laziness) read the feed, even though this blog looked deserted, like most of wordpress.com’s.

A few nights ago I had what experts call a lucid dream. I am not really sure it was the first time ever for similar experiences since I remember realizing I was dreaming before, but it was definitely the first time I was able to have total control on my actions and total awareness I was dreaming.
Not only at one point on my dream I said to myself I am dreaming
, but I have been able to modify space and environment at my will and even think to what would have been my next move.
Too badly I guess I got too excited and blew it after some time, but it was definitely a terrific experience I want to repeat. I am reading about lucid dreams and experimenting ways to induct them. As soon as I’ll be able to play with my Penguins I’ll post a recap of the game, boxscore and stuff.

A couple of days ago at vitamin.com Simon Griffin posted an article about websites that break on the new Internet Explorer version 7.
He made an extensive research through the websites of 100 companies on the FTSE 100 Index in order to see the differences between visualization on Internet Explorer version 6 and version 7.
Bottom line conclusion of his research is that on average, the more standard compliant the website is, the more faulty the visualization on Internet Explorer 7 is.
Before some dull-minded shmuck start thinking that this is some sort of anti standard compliance
advocacy, read the following from the article: Read the rest of this entry »

I can help but admit I am stuck.
After barely a month of so-so blogging I am having my first drought. I have a few arguments up my sleeve, but they are still in development. I keep having visitors from google searches about Nervous Breakdown
and Fake Leather
(its amazing how many search fake leather!) and I feel kind of sorry for them when they find this is the wrong site.
I wrote my last article about how the Pittsburgh Penguins were doing good with the new rookie and soon after that they started a loosing streak I would have felt responsible for if I was superstitious.
My experience with the wordpress.com environment is a bit frustrating. I am still sure I made the right choice to come here so to not have control on the blog files, but I feel the need to adjust things. Its my therapy though.
