Un poema........

The poem, An Irish Airman Foresees His Death, by Yeats kind of captures my feelings towards my work.

I love programming, but somewhere along the line, the fun goes away. From then on, it is about the money, position et cetera.

I mean, I need the money. Seriously. WTF!

Still...


I know that I shall meet my fate
Somewhere among the clouds above;
Those that I fight I do not hate,
Those that I guard I do not love;
My country is Kiltartan Cross,
My countrymen Kiltartan's poor,
No likely end could bring them loss
Or leave them happier than before.
Nor law, nor duty bade me fight,
Nor public men, nor cheering crowds,
A lonely impulse of delight
Drove to this tumult in the clouds;
I balanced all, brought all to mind,
The years to come seemed waste of breath,
A waste of breath the years behind
In balance with this life, this death.

New kid in town...

And it is called Buzz. Google buzz. buzzzzzzzzz.......

I fail to get excited. Or was it, I refuse to get excited? Is that so bad?

Why would my rants be of any interest to anyone else? Why would someone's rants be of any interest to me?

Damn. Oh well, I have the option of staying away!

Right. Shall exercise that.

By publishing online. Like this.

QED.
