Crane Under Maintenance
June 11, 2010
I need a break.
I understand that my posts have become less frequent. I’m sure many would find this a tragedy compared only with the passing of Elvis Presley, though I am here to tell you otherwise. For, as I will explain in greater detail in a moment, things are a little difficult at the moment.
It’s that time of the year, when my staff goes on vacation for a few weeks, leaving me to look after my own affairs. Even Helga has left, off to some family reunion or another, and will be back in three weeks or so. Because of this, I have a problem.
Normally, I have others to do my duties for me, leaving me plenty of time to work on my posts and projects. Lacking my staff, the office has come to a screeching halt, and I have been left to clean up the mess. As such, my time is limited, and therefore so are my posts.
As soon as the staff get back, I will resume life as normal. Until then, I fear that my posts will be less than sufficient in quantity or quality, as I lack a group of people to inspire new projects for me.
That is why I am posting an open area of suggestion: I need something to work on, a project to entertain me that I can write about, and so I ask you, the readers, to send any and all suggestions that you can on things that I could read up on, learn about, and improve upon. If I like your idea, I will post the resulting tide of information. If I do not, then I suppose you just aren’t cut out for this kind of thing, and therefore you should leave this place at once.
Yours Openly (to a degree),
Crane.
I have a question that I would like your opinion on:
Why are teenagers so into binge drinking? Why are they exited about visiting countries where the bar staff don’t stop you from drinking after you throw up and pass out? Why do they relate stories of how bad they felt as if it was a good thing? What enjoyment do they gain from waking up and not remembering what happened?
I guess that’s actually a few questions… let me know what you think.
You know what?
I think I will.
Yours Briefly,
Crane.
There is one thing I would like to see your opinion on Crane (whether that be your next topic or a future topic), is that of the way people seem to resort to petty methods of attacking others if they dislike someone, instead of a more constructive confrontational method. Case in point, a friend of mine was recently faced with such a predicament, where personal links of theirs were posted on a website that was specifically for those of a homophobic sexual orientation.
This friend of mine is by no means gay, nothing wrong with it one way or the other mind you, however information posted publicly like that could be damaging to one in social environments, or just lead to minor annoyance. Either way it seems to be common place these days for things like this to occur.
Why do you think people resort to this instead of solving their issues another way?
Regards, Sero.
