Whatchu Lookin’ At?
You can actually see a lot in a person’s eyes, can’t you? Blue skies, nice fluffy clouds, brown earth… someone standing in front of the person, holding something…. in this case, a camera!

So anyway… what you all been up to? I went to some people’s house to chill last night. Came home a beaten man. Them bus’ up we shirt at dominos, bwoy! 
I’ve been reading too… I just finished that novel I bought in the airport when I was flying out to Miami the other day. It was a good novel, I only took so long because nowadays I come home and read blogs daily instead of picking back up the novel I am “reading” at the time. This novel was perhaps only the second one I have actually finished at all in the last six months! It is also a novel I have read already, can you imagine? That tells you it was good, no? It was The Burning Shore , by Wilbur Smith. After reading it, I went out and bought the novel that follows it by the same author, it is like a continuation of the same story. That one is “The Power of the Sword“. I am reading that now. Hopefully I don’t get too far in it today though. I have some stuff I want to do today, like go to the beach and swim , and watch or play some volleyball, and go to the gym….
Yesterday, the reading made me not do anything I had planned to, so today the reading has to take a back seat. At least, thats the plan.
Some time ago, I asked the question on the Mad Bull’s Blog whether blogs could effect change… Now on CNN, they are wondering if it was the power of blogs that did that racist Imus in… go read it.
April 16th, 2007 at 8:18 am The power of the blog was never so great as the bloggers themselves would claim it to be. The numbers just don’t add up! Think of the fact that CNN television has MILLIONS of viewers worldwide, even on a slow newsday. Likewise the CNN website sees millions of hits per day. Enter the blogosphere (What an inane word!). Take the top ten most read blogs and look at their numbers. The total readership for the top ten blogs isn’t even 1 million per day. Compound that by the fact that most blogs feed off of each other in an incestuous circle of self adulation and the argument that the numbers are higher because of the vast number of blogs goes out the window too! You can credit television, Al Sharpton, a slow newsweek and to a lesser extent Jessie Jackson for the Don Imus debacle. Blogs never really factored into it. Have you ever wondered why it is always and only blogs that site the massive readership and immense power of blogs? CNN television never ran a story saying how powerful the blogs were, it was a CNN blog! As for the whole Don Imus non-issue. What a load of crap! If Snoop Dogg or Jay Z, even P Diddy had said the same thing and more, NO ONE would have cried foul. But, take a slow newsweek, Al Sharpton and a white guy and we have world news for over a week. Pathetic!
