no, not scott bakula

Marguerite writes: “Rainy season has started here – we may not see any significant sunshine until June 07 – that and just general povery and depression reminds of my favorite quote, by Samuel Beckett “I can’t go on. I’ll go on.”

look at june 2007. looking at the results just on page one, i see the 19th annual FIRST conference is taking place.

that seems impossible.

also, the sakai foundation will be meeting in amsterdam. it seems like as good a place as any to brainstorm about the future in open-source education software.

it looks like rotarians will be meeting in salt lake city in june of 2007. honestly, i didn’t know what members of rotary international did until i read the wikipedia entry, but i know they are everywhere.

any Ratays reading? well please be sure to mark next june down on your calendar. because it’s the ratay family reunion. look out south hills.

and finally, there is Evolution 2007. interestingly held in christchurch, new zealand.

that would make a great sitcom.

i’ve never been to christchurch or new zealand. i assume some briton named this town christchurch. from everything i can glean from my world’s media, new zealand is a fairly liberal place, and they are probably very welcoming of all those biologists and naturalists, sitting around talking about science and philosophy.

i hear the 2007 evolution conference came down to salt lake city and christchurch. apparently the salt lake citiens weren’t interested in having all those scientists and philosophers roaming around the hallowed streets of mormon town.

instead, the rotarians are coming.

i have seen one play this year. samuel beckett wrote it. i’ve always thought that he had really nice hair. he has a strong face. he looks the part of a writer.

if i was to cast a samuel beckett biopic, i’d choose jack palance.

but i guess that isn’t possible for a number of reasons.

i can’t go on.

and i won’t.
