Perhaps I am in the wrong business...

Cool Artwork

I have mixed feelings about Bruce Lee. There is no denying his accomplishments in the world of martial arts. Something about him always seemed unresolved however, right up to his strange death. He seemed to be destroyed from an anger from within even if it made him physically strong.

I ran across this interesting creation on youtube and thought it worth sharing.

Ancient Human Found in China

I found this article in BBS News interesting because it provides interesting information about early modern humans.

The Chinese unearthed human remains believed to be between 39,000 and 42,000 years old. There is evidence to suggest that the remains were of a hybrid individual, that is to say the result of interbreeding between modern humans and early human species such as Neanderthal or Homo Erectus. I've always believed this was likely, I think it is likely there are some Neanderthal genes in me.

The other thing that was interesting is that there were evidence this individual was wearing shoes, 40,000 years ago.

Most people today seem to be of the belief that we are the first advanced civilization, and that aside from civilization, or predecessors were incredibly primitive. This believe seems to be held in spite of evidence of burials, religious ceremonies, and art by Neanderthals.

DSL

As the result of Compass Communications being acquired by FiberCloud, which is in turn owned by Whidbey Tel, Eskimo North, the Internet service I run, is now able to provide DSL service throughout Qwest and Verizon's territory.

I spent a good portion of the day re-working the order page for Qwest DSL and Verizon DSL to reflect these changes but haven't got the main page done yet. Web work can be tedious.

This is good new though, we really needed a more widely available broadband offering.
