Sunday thoughts from theFarm

It’s about 5 am and everyone is sleeping.  This has been the story since we arrived a few days ago.  I get up around 5 am or so and do my own thing for about 3 hours b4 everyone gets up.  It’s the best part of the day, not sure why so many folks want to sleep through it.  I suppose folks can say the same thing about the 9 pm to midnight hours or some other 3 hour chunk that I sleep through.

I have tried out there social bookmarking service.  Created a test World Cup Group and played a bit around with there service.  It seems better (a little bit) than del.icio.us - not sure if it is better enuff to actually move all my social bookmarking activity away.

Send me you del.icio.us username
BTW - if you have an account there, and I don’t have your username, please send it to me.  I use the for: feature quite liberally and if you ever want me to read something, just tag is for:SEKeener… SEKeener is my username.  More info on for:tag

Temperatures and lack of wood stoves
The temperatures got down to about 10 degrees F this weekend up in Snowden.  Pretty damn cold.  We have a wood stove here, but it’s all warped and not so efficient.  I ordered a new wood stove about 3 months ago, but because of the rising gas prices etc, the company I ordered it from still says it is 3 weeks away from delivery and install.

Stuff I have been reading
World Cup Blog - Bob is an amazing passionate writer and his alter ego Pascha kicks some arse on the Angola Team Blog as well.  Ben is also writing a lot of timeless travel information on South Africa.  Been meaning to pick up some actuall non-digital media, books in particular recently, but I haven’t.  Any recommendations out there?  If so, email, comment, or for: tag it into my del.icio.us account por favor.

Huge week ahead.  Lots of exciting things happening. Have a great week.  I’l be up and at ‘em no later than 5 am on monday morning!  Can’t wait.
