one - 3-10-07

I've been toying around with this idea (a blog) for awhile. I keep sending people links & I figure sooner or later it will start to irritate them. I've held back because I've been afraid I would use something I wasn't supposed to and piss somebody off. Well here goes nothing.

So if I have improperly used someone's material, please just let me know.

I signed up on Buzznet today at my daughter's behest. (http://www.buzznet.com/). I guess I should be glad she asked me, she won't let me on MySpace. (It would be too "weird".) Anyway I saw this compelling home video of 9/11. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsuP1fgQjrw
If you can stand to watch it all again, close up and personal from a nearby highrise, you should take a look.


I know I should probably tell you something about myself, but those who know me won't need it, and those who don't, don't need it, so if your interested, I guess you'll just have to read along and see what I reveal as I go.

I hope to put something on here at least once a week. Mostly links of things I like news, software, art & graphics, and anything else I find interesting. That's why I've called it All Things Liz.
