Gotta work at it
The Science of Lasting Happiness: Scientific American
Apparently the key to staying happy is like the key to staying healthy, ever long vigilance. Practice makes perfect and all of that. Exercise those happy thoughts folks!
Yay!
Wabi-Sabi
An Earnest Cut and Sew – Styledash
I don’t know if I’d ever put standard ES denim near the phrase wabi-sabi, but maybe this is different with the customization? I wouldn’t go so far as to say wabi-sabi can only be used with raw denim, and I don’t know if you can get raw denim at the ES shop, but something about ES just doesn’t scream wabi-sabi to me.
Here is an interesting blog post on wabi-sabi. Maybe I linked to it before, I don’t remember and am too lazy to check. I got it way back from AYN blog

Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room to have TV debut on PBS with new footage – TV Squad

The legacy of the Rock is slowly ending
Last of deadly VX rockets incinerated – Military Affairs – MSNBC.com
Unabashedly I’m a fan of “The Rock”. I think it’s a paragon example of an action movie. I love it. (So glad it’s coming to bluray this summer). The last of the VX gas rockets are gone! Sadness…. haha.
People should watch
Cognitive Daily: HBO Series on addiction
Wait, let me not tell you what to watch. I’ll watch if I get that free HBO preview weekend. I find the subject interesting. Whether or not you do is up to you obviously.
