WEBSURFING
Here's a sequence of pages I went to while while surfing | The sequence started, incidentally, with a single intentional jump | That jump was to
[1] "
Is That Legal?" | An item on the page
Military Service: You Can't Tell the Players without a Program! drew me to the next two pages:
[2] Green Space | Sally Greene's page, with an item entitled
Patriot Acts [a read on which politicians and pundits actually did any mititary service] took me to
[3] Yale Law School and and article by Vincent Blasi entitled
Milton's Areopagitica and the Modern First Amendment about the origins of the liberal tradition in supporting Free Speech |
Then I backtracked to Ms Greene's Page, opening up two [4 + 5] blog links she has listed
[4] Balkanization, where I read about
How the Supreme Court makes decisions and of pundits who finally have begun questioning
the sincerity of Dubya's "faith" | But I also found the piece on Citizen Soverignty of interest so I hopped over to link [6] below |
[5] Since I've found Dave Neiwart's blog
Orcinus enlightening in the past I wentthere to read yet another piece on
Michelle Malkin and her questionable credibility when championing the WWII use of Internment Camps with the Japanese
[question: does she know something we don't? ...an trying to soften the blow?]
[6] Citizen Soverignty is, I learned, a non-profit "...
whose purpose is to deepen citizen involvement in American political life" | I scanned the site briefly and bookmarked it for later review |
[7] Evr mindful of Bruce's maxim ~ namely, not to get obsessed with political blogs, I took a jump from Orcinus to
Wood s Lot, where I was not disappointed | There I found items about Brazilian sculptor
Lygia Clark, a wonderful painting by the French Painter
Achille Etna Michallon [1796-1822] [which I've added here] and, finally, a link to a Gutenberg Project e-book, [8]
[8] The Development of the Feeling for Nature in the Middle Ages and Modern Times, by Alfred Biese | Since I'm down with a bad could [pneumonia in one lung] I've printed out the e-book to read |
That done, I figured I had to check my e-mail and do stuff about the house |
