Hello! My name is Eli Duke and right now I'm hanging out in Portland, OR.

A comprehensive revision of lifestyle

From Jim Kunstler’s Clusterfuck Nation

So many forces are arrayed against a return to the previous “normal” that we will be lucky, in another eighteen months, to still find ourselves speaking English and celebrating Christmas. What’s “out there” is a panorama of mutually reinforcing critical problems pertaining to how we live on this continent. Like the obesity, heart disease, and diabetes that plague the public, these problems are disorders of lifestyle habits and the only possible “cure” is a comprehensive revision of lifestyle.

I couldn’t have said it better myself, so I didn’t try.

  • Hanging out with Nate & The Weiner Kids: went on a bike ride, played Pirates & Sea Monsters, and now we're playing LEGO Indiana Jones (Wii). 7 hours ago
  • Nate and I watched HUMAN NATURE last night, and it wasn't very good. A bit surprising considering it was a Gondry / Kaufman joint. 8 hours ago
  • I leave for Antarctica exactly 2 weeks from today, Sept 16th, but I won't actually get to Anarctica until the 23rd. 11 hours ago

FLICKR

Some guy stuck in traffic with us was BLASTING his CB for all to hear: apparently it's a big rig on fire up ahead.

Jayce and I are on our way back to Portland, about 40 miles out, and we've come to a complete stop.

I did a Google search for "McMurdo APO" and lookwho popped up right at the top of the list: Mr. Cary Marger!
