Numbered Among the Dead The life's work of Marla Ruzicka, a 28-year-old American activist, had become door-to-door polling in Iraq to assess the number of civilian casualties of the war. She became one on Sunday, dying in a suicide bomb attack. "The Marines have nicknamed me Cluster Bomb Girl because I would hear of places where they had gone off," she said in a 2003 interview, "and I would ask them to help me clear the area."

RSS was big in 2004, but next year is going to be something else. It's killing me that I can't say more, but I know of two major library vendors that will make big announcements about RSS in 2005. It's going to be a fun year!

War is peace

War is peace 03/11/2003 01:59 PM

And I'm firmly convinced, if we have to, we will act [i.e. go to war]
in the name of peace and in the name of freedom.

press conference by George W. Bush

Love is hate War is peace No is yes And we're all free

Why, by Tracy Chapman

Reading the transcript of George w. Bush's press conference tonight (I couldn't bear to watch it), Tracy Chapman's song kept running through my head. It seemed like Bush had a script of 5 points he set out to make, and he kept on making them in response to the questions, no matter how inane they sounded. It was amazing the number of logical fallacies he committed in the course of one press conference, but just as amazing is the fact that as a body politic, we don't expect our representatives to be able think and speak logically. Still, I can't resist noting a few of the more egregious offenses against logic and reality.

it's hard to say the United States is defiant about the United Nations when I was the person who took the issue to the United Nations September the 12th, 2002. We've been working with the United Nations. We've been working through the United Nations.
vs.
I'm confident the American people understand that when it comes to our security, if we need to act, we will act. And we really don't need United Nations approval to do so.

A year ends, a year begins... 01/07/2004 04:50 PM

Wow. 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?
