      I agree with this quote I suppose, technology is only improving.

    "I am now in my twenties and my grandmother is still out there on her plot each day." This woman must be at least in her sixties, still doing this exhausting work.

  • "The opposite of love is not hate, it is apathy."

      This is important because it's good to know what apathy is defined as, and I find this a really cool quote.

Mapping Main Street » A Collaborative Documentary Media Project - 2 views

    What I noticed most about, "The Flushing Pimp," was that the interviewers had managed to have a direct 1-hour conversation with the subject's sister. I thought that the accomplishment of managing to have a 1-hour long interview with a complete stranger was actually pretty cool. When the podcaster said, "We had a 1-hour long conversation with [her]." I was thinking OSHI- wow. I thought it was pretty cool and professional to be able to manage that. Out of nearly all things I listened to about the podcast, for some reason, this practical thing seemed to intrigue me the most.

Search for Missing Metallica Fan Morgan Harrington Nets No Clues - Noisecreep - 0 views

  • Last week, Metallica's Kirk Hammett spoke about Harrington's case. "We are staying positive that she will be found soon," he said. "We are all hoping for the best and praying for her and her family. We all have children and as parents ourselves, it's our worst nightmare for a child to go out and not come back home. We empathize with that greatly, so we are doing what we can to help find her. We are staying positive."

    I'm learning more about Metallica's murder case right now, and in particular what I'm wondering is what Metallica's feelings about this is. I was researching the status of this online, and this article caught my attention because it was the first link on Google News. The caption mentioned band member Kirk Hammett's opinion on the matter, so I clicked on it since I was curious to his particular thoughts, knowing Kirk Hammett to be a more softer soul in the heavy metal band. "Last week, Metallica's Kirk Hammett spoke about Harrington's case. "We are staying positive that she will be found soon," he said. "We are all hoping for the best and praying for her and her family. We all have children and as parents ourselves, it's our worst nightmare for a child to go out and not come back home. We empathize with that greatly, so we are doing what we can to help find her. We are staying positive." The quote I chose here is basically saying that Kirk Hammett fully understands the sadness that comes with a missing child, and that it's something everyone fears. However, Metallica is staying positive and optimistic that something positive will turn up.
