Seventh Hole Turns Ugly at U.S. Open
(AP)
06/20/2004 02:32 PMAP - U.S. Open officials knew they were in trouble when tiny blades of
grass on the seventh green at Shinnecock Hills wilted before their
eyes Sunday morning. And this was two hours before the final round
began. It wasn't long before the 189-yard "Redan" hole turned into the
disaster they feared.
Title of the year

07/16/2004 06:35 PMI just got a copy of the new book by Micah Sifry and Nancy Watzman. I
haven't read it yet, but how can it be bad with a title like Is that a
Politican in Your Pocket?...

A year ends, a year begins...
01/07/2004 04:50 PMWow. What a long time it has been since I last posted to
plasticbag.org. And what have I done in the meantime? I've been back
to Norfolk to see my family, experienced the wonders of Christmas,
seen Return of the King,
watched ten hours of videos with my little brother, watched the snow
come down and get washed away, struggled through lots of music
television, had my first frank conversation with my little brother
about being gay, opened and given lots of gifts, battled back to
London via bus and train, gone back to work for a few days before
late-night driving off to Cornwall for New Year with a selection of
friends and friends of friends wherein was had much late-night
drinking, (indoor) swimming, fondue-ing, walks in the wet and the
dark, eating of beef and roaming around. Since I last posted I've
travelled about eight hundred miles in total, including trips to
Penzance for shopping, Newquay for boots and Bath for Sally Lunn's. I've driven
through Indian Queens, passed by Splatt and circumnavigated Pityme. I've also read a lot of The Social Life of Information (more
on how much I want to burn that particular waste of headspace later),
thought a lot about Tivo and Social
Software, played a lot of Knights of the Old Republic and both
been bought and bought for others some of the most wonderfully
entertaining porcelain cups I've ever seen. All in
all, an eventful and entertaining couple of weeks.
Next up is trying to get my head together to start a new project at
work (interesting one this - should have really positive, interesting
and coincidentally weblog-friendly effects on BBC Radio sites), trying to
assemble my thoughts for a conference at Olympia in a couple of
month's time, trying to work out whether to propose a participant session for this year's ETCon (which I'm
still hoping I'm going to attend), while apparently also trying to
score maximum points on self-created, self-destructive and highly
non-fun-for-all-the-family games like, "How quickly and effectively
can I alienate everyone I work with?", "Be an arse!" and "How fat,
weird and bearded can one man become?". What did you guys get up
to?
