Hi there. This is Joe of Art Lung dot com and San Diego blog dot. Com and Web, San Diego dot org and San Diego Bloggers dot com[00:00:10.580]
and San Diego spots dot com and every blog-darn-related thing in San Diego. And I’m checking out Audioblogger.com, which is a new service that I guess Blogger purchased, and in turn, Google purchased the Audio blog or–something like that–I’m not sure what all the corporate tentacles look like. But I thought this would be interesting to check out. Possible way for me to post to the blog when I’m out and far away, and maybe a way that people can actually use.[00:00:46.150]
I’m a little concerned that it won’t be accessible to people. Hi Kynn![00:00:53.970]
Well, I guess that’s about it. It’s overcast June-Gloomy Day, and I’m going to leave it at that. Shouts out to all my readers. If you think this is a good idea or a bad idea or you just think it’s weird, please drop me a note by using the “Drop Me a Line” feature on this blog post. Okay, take care. Bye-bye.

Several of my classmakes from Respiratory Therapy school worked at Rocky Mount’s hospital – Franklin Memorial. A bear walked through wednesday… Scare highlights growing problem.
I had no idea they even had bears in that part of Virginia (Southwestern Virginia — near Roanoke).

So today was a big quake. I live outside downtown, and this circa 1892 house shook pretty violently. I was surprised that nothing fell down – no pictures or books fell, and Leah and I have plenty of both on shelves and on the walls.
It was fun watching the news roll out. NPR had very little coverage, and the best news was provided to me via RSS and Atom feeds of the various bloggers on San Diego Bloggers — also some pals of mine on AIM were very useful – tossing around links. Also got news via web405 and websandiego — both are really mailing lists (aka ‘listservs’) ostensibly about web development — but when there’s a quake or a disaster — that’s the topic du jour.
There’s very little rationale for regional blogging, really. I mean, my whole interest in the internet is the ability to collapse space so that a person across the world and I can talk like we’re in the next room. But when something is happening in a particular region, you really want to hear from people who are in the thick of it. I certainly learned that when the fires hit last year and I talked about regionalism in blogs.
Since the blog has recently upgraded from b2 to wordpress, I was also able to use trackback to communcate with some of the blogs via san diego blog.
Lasting impact, zero. But it did give me an excuse to post to San Diego Blog. And it was neat to get instant man-in-the-street takes on it from all over San Diego.

Minor changes to lab.artlung.com have been made. Still somewhat chaotic, but less so. Also, my Gallery script had been dead, but was rescued with help from http://www.archive.org/web/web.php.
Still feeling a bit snotty and sick. Backachey in particular.
More mundanities later.

Coughing less, mucous no longer yellow. Feeling better!

I just realized, after liking the song for a decade, that the lovely song L.A. County by Lyle Lovett is about a guy driving to L.A. to murder his ex — on her wedding day.
Shades of Kill Bill, I think.

A new header, me in a cowboy hat, making some sort of funny face. I like that it makes me look like a smart alec.
