Although this is my private blog (that I hardly have the time to pay attention to), the web site as a whole is currently under [re]construction in the background – undergoing a re-visioning for Espinola Technology Consulting.

The new site will be running Joomla, and will be both an information portal as well as online community for my customers and enthusiasts.

Please bear with me and stay tuned!

Go after her. Fuck, don’t sit there and wait for her to call, go after her because that’s what you should do if you love someone, don’t wait for them to give you a sign cause it might never come, don’t let people happen to you, don’t let me happen to you, or her, she’s not a fucking television show or tornado. There are people I might have loved had they gotten on the airplane or run down the street after me or called me up drunk at four in the morning because they need to tell me right now and because they cannot regret this and I always thought I’d be the only one doing crazy things for people who would never give enough of a fuck to do it back or to act like idiots or be entirely vulnerable and honest and making someone fall in love with you is easy and flying 3000 miles on four days notice because you can’t just sit there and do nothing and breathe into telephones is not everyone’s idea of love but it is the way I can recognize it because that is what I do. Go scream it and be with her in meaningful ways because that is beautiful and that is generous and that is what loving someone is, that is raw and that is unguarded, and that is all that is worth anything, really.

I am.

It might not be the right time
I might not be the right one
But there’s something about us I want to say
Cause there’s something between us anyway
I might not be the right one
It might not be the right time
But there’s something about us I’ve got to do
Some kind of secret I will share with you
I need you more than anything in my life
I want you more than anything in my life
I’ll miss you more than anyone in my life
I love you more than anyone in my life

I just learned with great sadness that George Carlin passed yesterday, apparently because of heart failure. Myself having been born in the early 70′s, George Carlin has always been a cultural icon to me, and one of my all-time favorite comedians.

I had the great fortune of finally being able to catch his act last year.  He was just as cleaver as ever, and his routine was all that I could ever have wanted it to be. Although branded as a counter-culture troublemaker, his comedy was always well grounded and sensible.  Sensible in that we have to occasionally look back at ourselves and our culture, and see the wrong we are doing in our quest to be right and righteous.

George, you will be missed.
