I'm starting to see a way to integrate the two extremes I tend to waiver between stylistically in all my endeavors, and I'm rather deeply annoyed at myself for taking this long to figure it out.

Meanwhile, let's talk about the Flash Mob thing. Brilliant when we all didn't know about it, when people didn't send email around their offices asking when the next one was. But now that we get it, it ceases to make any sort of statement other than about our hunger. So what's next? How's it useful? What am I being told that I never knew before?

That's exactly how I feel about the flash mob thing now, too. But when I said it, everyone looked at me like I was the biggest spoilsport in history. When it's on the front page of the newspaper on the day that it's going to happen, what's the point anymore?

You have a point. But the Flash Mob thing isn't actually new, certainly not in NYC, although some of the technology has gotten "better." Jean Shepherd (who used to haunt the AM airwaves on WOR a long time back) used to organize these kinds of crazy things nearly 5 decades ago, but I'm starting to ramble.

I'm enjoying your LJ...

Cheers...
