Internet Surfer Girl


Today I went from pinterest 
to Joshua Ritter on YouTube
to Leonard Cohen from YouTube sidebar
to Wikipedia article about the Ten Bulls
to Wikidpedia article on Vietnamese water puppetry
back to YouTube to watch video of Vietnamese water puppetry

with some side trips
into N. T. Wright’s version of Genesis 
(as sung to the tune of ‘Yesterday’)
and a random preacher guy doing 
1-minute movie reviews 
(cool idea/really bad execution 
said the review of the reviewer)

a day in the life of a surfer-girl, internet style

Life is like a day surfing the internet:  

You start out headed in one direction and end up going an entirely different place than you had planned.

Sometimes through virtually no effort on your part, you find something wondrous, amazing, beautiful.

There’s a lot of silliness to filter out along the way.

Other people’s anger can catch you by surprise or it can sweep you along with it.

And every now and then, you learn something new.
