#22, Sleepy Evening Again

Early Evening, Princeton-By-The-Sea, California, November ‘07, artistic view.

More rain, more sleepy weather again. It is raining on and off again, and the weather makes you very lethargic. Spent some time in front of a computer during the day watching YouTube videos, commenting on some, rating, and deleting everything else that I do not want to watch. I have been getting many videos like that recently. Some people send two, three, four, and even in one case, five identical emails with attached videos. Why do they do that? It only makes me mad, and I will not watch for sure if somebody is trying to force me!
Have you noticed that the number of mean and arrogant comments is way down on YouTube? Not sure if it is just me, since I did clean my account and many people got dropped, but things are overall much cleaner. Probably the initial, tumultuous stage belongs to the past and things are going to be more pleasant from now on. Let's hope so. Or, maybe I am just dreaming, the weather is indeed good for that.
Just a single case opposite to what I just told you. Someone called me a ****head after I pointed out to a girl singing Wuthering Heights that the song was originally sung by Kate Bush! I can handle that, I guess.
Nikkei is down 4% in Tokyo, let's see what NYSE does in NY in a few hours. Apple is down to 130 from 200 high not long time ago, a very major correction. Lots of house foreclosures in the San Francisco Bay Area, house prices are going down as well.
A quick trip to a bookstore to check if there are any new titles, also checking latest travel and photo magazines, kind of ritual.
Later in the evening, chicken and spinach crepes and coffee at IHOP http://www.ihop.com. Gas for my car, violin favorites CD playing inside. We can call it a day once I submit this blog, and finish a cup of green tea.
