Digg! this story.
I’m still new to this ‘technology’ and social networking thing…… so I’m sure I’ve not yet learned how to take full advantage of all the ways it will save the planet.
That said, I have learned one thing for sure……It sure can suck you down.
I imagine it’s like falling into a crevasse on a glacier……… one minute you’re walking along, enjoying the view…. the next minute you’re slipping and falling 50 feet into the cold dark crack that keeps getting narrower and narrower……. The trouble is that nobody’s tied me in with ropes. I’m gone forever as the earth and the ice ebb and flow around me.
It is truly amazing how much crap you can find on YouTube………and how one little tidbit leads directly to another (equally enthralling) tidbit… to another….and another…. If it weren’t for food and water and biology, why would anyone ever need to come up for air? There’s comedy. There’s tragedy. There’s intrigue. There’s song and dance. There’s a ‘how-to’ video for the most expedient way to peel an egg. Who needs real life?
A whole world to explore and get lost in. Like a crevasse.
(Epilogue: I’m safely out. Phewf!)
