- It's a mighty strange day here at the Coast Plaza, the building where I work and live. Strange like software can be. Most consumer products can only fail in a limited number of ways. They can break due to stress and/or degradation, they can short out if they are electrical, and so on. But with software, there are so many possible ways for a failure to occur. |

- La mémoire et la mer La marée, je l'ai dans le c ur Qui me remonte comme un signe Je meurs de ma petite s ur, de mon enfance et de mon cygne Un bateau, ça dépend comment On l'arrime au port de justesse Il pleure de mon firmament Des années lumières et j'en laisse Je suis le fantôme jersey Celui qui vient les soirs de frime Te lancer la brume en baiser Et te ramasser dans ses rimes Comme le trémail de juillet Où luisait le loup solitaire Celui que je voyais briller Aux doigts de sable de la terre Rappelle-toi ce chien de mer Que nous libérions sur parole Et qui gueule dans le désert Des goémons de nécropole Je suis sûr que la vie est là Avec ses poumons de flanelle Quand il pleure de ces temps là Le froid tout gris qui nous appelle Je me souviens des soirs là-bas Et des sprints gagnés sur l'écume Cette bave des chevaux ras Au raz des rocs qui se consument Ö l'ange des plaisirs perdus Ö rumeurs d'une autre habitude Mes désirs dès lors ne sont plus Qu'un chagrin de ma solitude Et le diable des soirs conquis Avec ses pâleurs de rescousse Et le squale des paradis Dans le milieu mouillé de mousse Reviens fille verte des fjords Reviens violon des violonades Dans le port fanfarent les cors Pour le retour des camarades Ö parfum rare des salants Dans le poivre feu des gerçures Quand j'allais, géométrisant, Mon âme au creux de ta blessure Dans le désordre de ton cul Poissé dans des draps d'aube fine Je voyais un vitrail de plus, Et toi fille verte, mon spleen Les coquillages figurant Sous les sunlights cassés liquides Jouent de la castagnette tans Qu'on dirait l'Espagne livide Dieux de granits, ayez pitié De leur vocation de parure Quand le couteau vient s'immiscer Dans leur castagnette figure Et je voyais ce qu'on pressent Quand on pressent l'entrevoyure Entre les persiennes du sang Et que les globules figurent Une mathématique bleue, Sur cette mer jamais étale D'où me remonte peu à peu Cette mémoire des étoiles Cette rumeur qui vient de là Sous l'arc copain où je m'aveugle Ces mains qui me font du fla-fla Ces mains ruminantes qui meuglent Cette rumeur me suit longtemps Comme un mendiant sous l'anathème Comme l'ombre qui perd son temps À dessiner mon théorème Et sous mon maquillage roux S'en vient battre comme une porte Cette rumeur qui va debout Dans la rue, aux musiques mortes C'est fini, la mer, c'est fini Sur la plage, le sable bêle Comme des moutons d'infini... Quand la mer bergère m'appelle |

- Lu sur CMAQ : "Si tous les habitants du monde consommaient autant d'énergie que les américains, il faudrait pas moins de 12 planètes pour tous nous accueillir! Mais voilà, nous n'avons découvert pour le moment qu'une planète sur laquelle la vie humaine est possible, et c'est la planète Terre, malheureusement de plus en plus mal en point. Hubert Reeves, astrophysicien spécialisé dans les questions d'environnement nous a expliqué, hier après-midi, lors de sa conférence au musée de la civilisation à Québec, les scénarios catastrophes auxquels la Terre risque d'être soumise. Premier constat donc, l'avenir de l'espèce humaine est menacé par la pollution à laquelle nous sommes exposés désormais. |

- (SOURCE:A Networked World: Send for Dr Doolittle - We Found the Pushmepullyou)- I'd say it's about all 3 things. QUOTEIn what I call the information economy, its very easy to become focused on the currency and miss the transaction. Information is a currency, Rushkoff calls it social currency, I think it is much wider than that, but it is still only currency, and it is more like gold than cash. |

- * DEAR ABBY: I am a single mother with two young daughters and a 21-year-old son, "Billy," who dropped out of high school. When it happened, I was very upset. I told him if he wanted to continue to live at home, he would have to get a full-time job and pay rent. Billy didn't like that, so he went to live with his girlfriend and her parents, who didn't seem to care that he had no job. |
