Don Son’s Blog - donson.org

I haven’t been pushed out a blog post in a while. Getting the momentum moving after a break is always tough, so I thought I would start back up with an easy post. A list of some of my favorite websites; news, resources, and humor.

• Some Ecards - not your typical ecards. They seem to have one for every occasion. Hillarious.
• Tech Crunch - great site to keep up on the latest and greatest tech news, specifically Start Ups. This is the first site I open each day. I enjoy the un-apologetic writing style.
• Tahoe Daily Tribune - home town news is important to follow. Its just too bad that the Tahoe Daily Tribune website sucks. Their new site is hard to use. the Mountain News needs to step up and embrace the web!
• Google yep, that google. I spend so much time on this site, thought I should include it.

The painting, The Son of Man, by the french artist René Magritte, intrigues me.

The artist had this to say about the painting…
At least it hides the face partly. Well, so you have the apparent face, the apple, hiding the visible but hidden, the face of the person. It’s something that happens constantly. Everything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see. There is an interest in that which is hidden and which the visible does not show us. This interest can take the form of a quite intense feeling, a sort of conflict, one might say, between the visible that is hidden and the visible that is present.

To me there is another layer to this painting, I think that not only does everything we see hide something else; but we also choose what we see… does that mean we choose what we hide? Not sure. But the thought is cool.

Cab drivers are always on the phone, and so are convenience store clerks… Do you think they are talking to each other? If they are, what are they talking about.

Are you happy? If not, why? If so, why? I’ve been thinking lately about what I need to be happy. I’ve gotten as far as knowing that I need fulfillment.

I saw the following list on a friends MySpace Profile, and it makes alot of sense to me, plus it kind of completes this blog post.
