Did you see Sweet Home Alabama? No, I’m not recommending it if you haven’t. Whether you have or not, you might be interested to see what sand really looks like when lightning strikes it.http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&lr=lang_en&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=Fulgurite
Last night was simply horrible.
I've been looking forward to my ART113 class at WCU since I signed up. Art is something that I would like to be much better at but simply am not. I figured that by signing up for a computer art class, I might gain some artistic/design insight while learning how to best use the professional industry tools that I usually have available to me. It looked like a win/win. But my first foreboding came a week before the class even started.

I managed to finish reading Interface, which was a fairly good read. It's not a pure Neal Stephenson book, but it's pretty good. It's about a governor who has a stroke (2 actually) and whose brain is fitted with a chip that allows the brain to rebuild damaged neuro-pathways. At the same time, he begins a campaign for the presidency, backed by a hidden network of very, very rich people who make every effort that this third-party candidate is the favorite of the people.
