Getting Together In Groups

All that I really want to know is why it seems so difficult to coordinate more than two people. What I am referring to, of course, is the phenomenon of the often futile attempt to get… say… around 6 people together for dinner or ANY event. I remember a few years ago, in an event that seems typical of the overall situation. We were all trying to get together, after school, for dinner…. somewhere. Sometimes, the most difficult part is ok, what are we going to do (now that we have decided that we are going to do something). So we decided to go for dinner. What eventually happened was, two of the eight got lost, three of the six went to the wrong restaurant, me and whatshername got to the right place, on time, but nobody else showed up. The other guy finally did show, but he left to find the others. In a city that is usually difficult. It took two hours after our original meeting time to finally corral everything and get them in the right place. Whew.

My point here is that, no matter how well an event is planned, everything will go to pieces. Nobody knows exactly why this is, but Murphy’s law has at least something to do with it. So for tomorrow, as I go to meet an undetermined amount of people in order to study (sorry… not something that exciting), who know what will happen. Some will go to the wrong place, others will think its the different day, and……..

So lately Ive just been screwing around with animations on this page. I took most of them out, because the thing just became alive and it was detracting from any sort of concentration someone could have when reading the words. Oh well, however, some of them still are in the “chaos” section. This is a section I leave for experiments, and assorted junk that won’t fit anywhere else (or there for that matter). Well, I was only going to update this page when I had something real to say, this attempt seems to have failed, so I’ll try again later. If the words don’t come, they just don’t come.
