It Doesn't Control Us

Ken: “Some of us read to read. We savor the words and linger over their texture. We aren't looking for immediate gratification and a quick fix. We aren't checking our list to make sure we read every blog on it today or this week. We're looking for gems of wit and wisdom. We're truffle pigs in search of a morsel worth savoring, and willing to take the time to enjoy it. We control the information glut, it doesn't control us. We choose the blogs we read with the same kind of care we select our favorite books.”

My Various Witty Remarks

Follow @sillygwailo on Twitter!

  • @vanmega pants are a challenge no matter what you're doing.
  • How do awkward nerds do at SXSW? #couchbeers
  • @jordanbehan I'm going to hurtle downtown for #couchbeers. If you hear something crashing into the Strutta building, that's me and my bike.
  • Is the bike parking situation on the Vancouver Art Gallery block really as bad as I think it is?
  • @bmann I don't need an excuse to go to Bowen Island on Sunday, but if there's a Tweetup, I'll happily claim that's why I'm going!
