Get off your butts!

I think (with the changing weather) it's about time to get active again. The oppressive heat of the summer is almost spent, and we have that rare time that isn't horrible to be outside (before it gets wet and cold). I know Daigidan and i have often joked about it, but I'm gonna start doing it. Maybe on those mornings that D and wife are sleeping I'll go out free running. Here's a local site http://www.dcmetroparkour.com/ . Since I've been unable to drag D and SO out of the house, even for simple frisbee, I'm gonna hafta get medieval on thems asses... but otherwise, I like the idea of a Saturday morning spent terrorizing the neighborhood, especially when it's not mine ;)

Information Policy for the Library of Babel

From the abstract:
"The image of Borges's Library of Babel, which contains all possible books, is haunting and suggestive. This essay asks what we would do if we were advising a Federal Library Commission on how to deal with the Library's vast holdings and overwhelming disorganization. This thought exercise provides a set of sensible principles for information policy in an age of extreme informational abundance."

A neat little look into my world. It's written by a co-worker and all around neat guy. (a little shout out to the p-medics!)
