Yesterday I sat around waiting for the phone company to send a repairman, and looks like tomorrow I'll be doing it again. Yesterday they restored the dial tone, but there's still a loud hum on the line. This happens on the average of once every 3 months. The phone poles behind my apt. are old and decrepit and whenever it snows (or the sun shines too hard) my phone goes out. They never really fix the problem. The repairman does some kind of patch and then the phone's OK for a while, then the cycle starts again. I'm supposed to sit and wait from 8 am to 7pm and if they don't show up (which they often don't) I go through the whole thing on another day. According to one of the repairmen, the company had several million marked for infrastructure repair and it all went to CEOs in the last merger. I totally believe it. Anyway, the company's name is VERIZON (stupid name--like a ten year old's idea of clever: "vertical + horizon"? gimme a break) and they SUCK.

They're back! Late hummingbirds, that is. We don't know if it's climate change, or just more people noticing, but more and more western hummers are showing up in the east after fall migration should be over. Last year they were in Yonkers and at Fort Tryon Park; this year they're even closer. There's been a Selasphorus genus bird (almost certainly a Rufous) in Central Park for over a week now, and I just got word that there is a probable Calliope downtown at Battery Park City. Must go take a look…
(And don't forget the Yellow-breasted Chat that's been hanging out in Bryant Park.)
They saved Meinhof's brain, and now it's going back. New strategy against terrorism: autopsy first, then trial!
Harry Potter jellybeans. Mmmmm... Earwax.
Maybe you read about the LaughLab in last week's New Yorker. Finally checked out the site. A few laughs, and some interesting international differences in what people find funny. If you really want to knock 'em dead, 103 words about a necrophiliac duck should do it.
This wasn't what I was looking for, but it came up on two unrelated searches, so I'm posting it. Besides, you've got to love a blog called eschaton, though if you think you know where the name came from, you may be wrong.
here's some happy news...the earth's polarity is going to switch, and everyone's gonna be screwed.
This'd be a biggie for Osama and the Bush Administration.
When the gods want to punish you they deliver not one but two post election newspapers to your house, which feature the smiling? Trent Lott front page and center. So I have an extra one if anybody wants one. Actually two extra. Going once...going twice...gone with Monday's trash. On the bright side, I had a bit of good luck at work on Friday.
Steve DiBenedetto's show which close's today 11/9, is brilliant and one of the finest art shows I have seen in years (I dont get out much:>).....Derek Eller 526-30W25
