A Reporter's Life

Dave Barry leaves

I haven't posted anything lately ("too busy" is my current excuse), but this news shocked me into a post.

Yes, it's true: Pulitzer-winning humor columnist Dave Barry is taking a leave of absence for at least a year, maybe longer. You can read the Miami Herald's article about it here by using "nomail@juno.com" and "bugmenot" as the e-mail and password required to access the page.

I don't have anything else to say at the moment, because I'm still too surprised.

About four or five years ago I had the pleasure of seeing Dave Barry live. He was the comedy relief after a series of keynote speeches and commercial presentations at ISPCon -- a convention for Internet Service Providers.

Long story short -- this guy is funny. I'd love to see him again. Perhaps this "leave of absense" of his is just for writing, and maybe he intends to go on tour or something, or try something new other than just writing. At least, we can hope!

Dave Barry was just in San Jose and San Francisco on his book tour, but I couldn't make it to either appearance. Now I regret that even more -- though I can hope he'll return to the area when his movie comes out.

I imagine Dave speaking to a bunch of ISP people must have been quite amusing. :-)

Blogging is the next generation of the Internet. If you've got something to say that interests somebody else, by golly, then there you have it! It's not about search engine rank or advertising, either. It's about word-of-mouse, and presentation. More here

You have already grasped that Sisyphus is the absurd hero. He is, as much through his passions as through his torture. His scorn of the gods, his hatred of death, and his passion for life won him that unspeakable penalty in which the whole being is exerted toward accomplishing nothing. by free online poker
