Oliver Lee Memorial State Park, Alamogordo NM, January 9, 2009
Will I ever catch up
I'm still trying to catch up with my internet backlog from the Verizon Broadband Access outage here at the park and now the main circuit breaker in the rig overheated and died. Now today I'll have to pack up and go into town for a new breaker.
Will it never end with all these maintenance issues I've been dealing with ever since I bought this rig? It's been as bad as buying a 20 year old house - everything is wearing out at the same time. Ah well, once I get through it LD should be good to go for another 15 - 20 years. I sure hope so.

- Verizon cell phone service - good signal
- Verizon EVDO service - very good signal and access speed ( I have to qualify this - during my January 2008 visit the signal and access speed was excellent - in January 2009 it was practically non-existent during the day and slow at night with unpredictable short periods of excellent access)

Sincerity Itself is Bullshit
As conscious beings, we exist only in response to other things, and we cannot know ourselves at all without knowing them. Moreover, there is nothing in theory, and certainly nothing in experience, to support the extraordinary judgement that it is the truth about himself that is the easiest for a person to know. Facts about ourselves are not peculiarly solid and resistant to skeptical dissolution. Our natures are, indeed, elusively insubstantial - notoriously less stable and less inherent than the natures of other things. And insofar as this is the case, sincerity itself is bullshit.
On Bullshit, Harry G. Frankfurt, pg 66
