***Writing is hard. All of you who post regularly, congrats.

***One thing we love the internet for: Being able to look up random, silly trivia. I just had to find the words of a couple of sea chanties(also spelled shanties).

***So now I KNOW what to do with a drunken sailor!

***I don't see internet viral stuff, which I regret when I could have used a good laugh. Just the other day I finally discovered What Does The Fox Say. I don't watch TV, so was spared this before now. The Norwegian or Danish guys who made this song specialize in absurd musical video, but I don't want to watch most of them to keep this one seeming special.

***What I do think is utterly worth sharing is the Il Volo guys singing a capella on Yahoo. Yahoo makes some great videos of its own.

It's hard for me to understand why people dislike opera... This isn't opera, but pop opera I guess you'd call it. This video sent me looking for more of their music on iTunes, and I found The Swan. This is so beautiful sung by them it brought tears to my eyes. I was only familiar with it on cello by Yo Yo Ma.

***I'm writing this to avoid other work, clearly. It's also really chilly here, and I don't work well when my hands and feet are cold.

***I get tired of the people who make their living flipping domain names. They're too quick to react to slowness in the market, and when sales online are slow, they'll tell people their domains and websites are worthless. So many of them are trigger-happy when it comes to firing off nasty remarks and Youtube videos that illustrate their sarcastic comments.

The ones I run into on the major forums are also very sensitive and snap at you with vitriol when they think they're being questioned. DNForum has more than a few like that. Reminds me of my father, who became enraged if his authority was challenged.
