Yahoo in 1994. Ah those heady days of HTML 1.0. The links look like they still work.
In my ongoing attempt to keep myself occupado and grounded in things non-technical, I’ve been doing origami. It’s an amazing artform - full of purpose and intent, yet it quiets the mind like nothing else I can recently remember. I’m especially interested in practical origami, such as making your own cd holder.This story about the last day of office for Citizen Clinton has a certain sadness to it. Strange how fast eight years go by. I can still remember the night he was elected in ‘92: I was slinging espresso on election night at a cafe in Old Town. That is a tony part of town and I can remember later on in the evening when it was apparent Clinton would win, some jackhole in a suit was pissed off enough to declare on his way out of the store that “socialism had finally come to America”. At the end of the evening, I just couldn’t believe there was a democrat in the White House, having grown up during the Reagan years and the extra four years of Bush Sr., it was a little surreal. Now of course we have Dubya. He’s like his father: a moderate Republican who moves to the right during elections to energize the political base. Strangely enough, Bush Sr. ran against Reagan during the Republican primaries in 1980 just as Al Gore ran against the Younger Bush during the election. Either way, I think it’s going to be a rough ride.
