ZZ9 Plural Z Alpha

Expectedly, the second coming of comments was small (perhaps a little too small... sneaky bastards.) Though the second time is never as good as the first. But I guess it doesn't really matter. I've made most efforts not to publicize this blog, except for a slip up on orkut. But that does bring up the question, whether I should publicize this blog more, like actually posting it in places people will see (profile, orkut, whatever).

On the one hand, this entire blog is public, as it's on the Internet. I've made no effort to create hidden posts or to even to pursue that feature. And I do not intend on deleting previous posts as I've seen other people do. I will consider it. Any comments? (and remember, you don't have to be a troll to post anonymously).

I've bought the Clinton memoirs at Cody's Books with full intention of lining up Monday night to get tickets for the former President to sign my copy. If other people are going, we can go together. Though I'm afraid that it may require getting there Monday night. I'll scope the place out immediately after work on Monday. Then gather equipment and camp out. We'll see how popular Clinton is in the East Bay. I doubt I'll get to reading it by Tuesday, if at all. I've got Mostly Harmless by Douglas Adams and Einstein's Dreams by Alan Lightman to finish.

I'll be using a passage from Einstein's Dreams over the weekend for my Intro to Digital Video Production assignment. With any luck, I'll get some comments on framing the shot from our instructor on Saturday when I pick up the equipment. I'm subjecting multiple people to this, since ideally I could edit the shots together to flow seemlessly. Though I doubt that will happen. But it'll still be a good exercise to think about it.

I do need to figure out what I'm going to do for my final project in the course. The current idea is a music video, but not one where anyone in the video sings or plays an instrument. Essentially, it's a short with one prevalent song, by the sounds of it. Perhaps, if it's appropriate, I can intercut signing into the transitions. In order to do this, I need a song. It needs to be upbeat. It needs not be purely instrumental. Any ideas?
