whats really worth doing? we are all children of this planet and we are all given the wealth and abundance of this planet, even the whole universe.

wealth is meaningless to me, in some respects. From age 22 to 28 I grew up with the Internet bubble. Ive tasted plush offices, a 747 to work on Monday morning, a 747 home on Friday evening, total schedule flexability, meeting people in sanfranciso like some people meet at a coffee shop.

there is an idle power in the unemployed geeks in personal telco and in portland.

I have been reminded that being able to do what you could not do on your own is very much like a disease. You cant generate it on your own, you have to catch in from someone else. On Saturday A geek-millionaire came to the house, a friend of Adam's, and just seeing someone do what i think i want to do, organizes patterns in my mind that elimates barriers.

whats really important, whats really worth doing. I think about a woman I saw standing on a highway off-ramp with a sign saying pregnant and broke, need a little kindness. it makes me think about what economic justice means. The only clear problem I see right now is that government is too large. 40% tax on income is unjust. military spending has been out of control for decades. yet you cant change it all at once. you have to accept most of it, in fact. but once you find what you can change, you use it day and night. when you learn how to hammer, try to make every problem a nail.

i finally got some sleep last night. i really think i am living in sleep deprivation. i imagine i had one or two solid hours of sleep last night. now my enery has come in one big burst. i imagine ill be beat later, tired, discouraged, scared, frustrated. hopefully i can reread this and get some ideas.

There is an ISP in town that is in trouble. There may be an opportunity to help there. I would like to get a space, a real space this time, inside the towne storage center.
