<nettime> Life is too short |
On one of Silicon Valley's more congested stretch of freeway, the regional telco, SBC, has a large billboard. At rush hour you usually have about 5 minutes to read the message: "Life is too short for dialup" (so order DSL pronto). Using Google I thought I'd find out some other reasons that life was too short (other than war, inadequate nutrition, disease, or natural calamity): Life is too short for boring music Life is too Short to Live in the Wrong Place! . LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO WASTE TIME HATING PEOPLE Life is too short...to smile Life is too short to be miserable... Life is too short to be Ordinary Life is too short for average food Life is too short to drink bad wine Life is too short to drink out of ugly glasses Life is Too Short for Mediocre Sex T-shirts Life is Too Short to Spend it with an Ugly Gun "Life is too short to be without a Pinzgauer" Life is too short to wear tight shoes Life is too short for boring hifi Life Is Too Short for office politics Life is too short to play by the rules Life is too short to read cheap mail Life is Too Short To Work With Jerks Steve Cisler 4415 Tilbury Drive San Jose, California 95130 http: home.inreach.com/cisler 1-408-379-9076 cisler@pobox.com "Go on the country, not on the map." -Axle in Tim Winton's "Dirt Music" # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: majordomo@bbs.thing.net and "info nettime-l" in the msg body # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime@bbs.thing.net
