Bloodletters – Hack Yourself

03-Jan-2005 By Jim

Excerpt from:
Bloodletters – Hack Yourself
Stop assigning blame. This is the first step. Stop assigning blame and leave the past behind you.

You know whose fault it is that your life isn’t perfect. Your boss. Your teachers. Your ex-lovers. The ones who hurt you, the ones who abused you, the ones who left you bleeding. Or even yourself. You know whose fault it is %u2014 you’ve been telling yourself your whole life. Knowing whose fault it is that your life sucks is an excellent way to absolve yourself of any reponsibility for taking your life into your own hands.

Forget about it. Let it go. The past isn’t real. %u201CThat was in another country, and besides, the wench is dead.%u201D If we’re not talking about something that is real and present and in your life right now, then it doesn’t matter. Nothing can be done about it. If nothing can be done about it, then don’t spend your energy dwelling on it %u2014 you have other things to do.

I may sound cruel, I may sound simplistic, I may sound like I’m saying you should just %u201Cget over it,%u201D by suggesting that you should let go of your past. I’m sorry for that. But life won’t hold still and wait for you to lick your wounds. The race is still being run. Get up and keep moving. You can’t do anything about yesterday.

You can do something about tomorrow. And about the next day. Focus your energies there.

Controls on Comment Spam and You

31-Dec-2004 By Jim

If you post a legitimate comment on an article here and the system rejects it, sending a rather unpleasant email I think (default/built-in content, not mine), please let me know via email (jbala at jimbala dot net).

I’ve recently installed new comment spam software and I am still adjusting its settings. Recently, several IP addresses showed up in the blacklist and I didn’t receive any notification that those comments had been rejected/deleted; it’s supposed to notify me when any comment post is deleted.

If your comment, not being spam, was rejected/deleted, I apologize for the trouble. I’ve significantly decreased the software’s sensitivity level but I still don’t have any real idea what will or won’t trigger a automatic rejection/deletion. But hopefully it will behave more nicely now and still catch most or all of the spam comments.

Starbucks Gossip: Early review of Starbucks’ Chantico chocolate drink: "That stuff is really yummy"

25-Dec-2004 By Jim

Yeah, baby! 8-) But, this sucker’s got 390 Calories in six ounces (21g fat; 51g carbs), which is practically a diet compared to a Cold Stone milkshake (3200 Calories) but still not something you want to be imbibing very often. Nonetheless, I’ll be at Starbucks on Jan 8; count on it.

Starbucks Gossip: Early review of Starbucks’ Chantico chocolate drink: “That stuff is really yummy”
One of the Evanston Starbucks is asking “guests” to sample the new CHANTICO — they call it a chocolate bar in a cup — which is coming out January 8.
