Here’s the lablog installment of American Detour. I kind of like that this guy doesn’t really avoid many topics. Not everyone casually mentions topics like the blowing up of abortion clinics in their travel video.  I appreciate that he’s prepared to challenge some of the ridiculous ignorance surrounding Islam. He does it rather off-handedly and doesn’t go on about it, but the point is made. It might not be for everyone, but then what is?

I also believe this particular post might be one of my better tricks, though now that I’m telling the story it probably wouldn’t be considered much of a trick anymore.

However, I am writing this on September 15th and setting it to publish on Monday the 20th. For some reason, I think this is pretty darned cool.

This means, that while I’m running around doing my usual Monday schtick of laundry, emails and errands, it somehow looks like I’m busily writing posts and uploading videos.  In short, it looks like I’m working on this when I am SO not.

That’s rather pathetic – but there it is.

It’s sort of like that old TV ad of the exuberant woman sitting down to dinner and proclaiming, “I’m cleaning my bathroom bowl!”  She probably felt the same way about the little blue tidybowl flusher system as I do about this delayed publication plan.

My advice to her, should probably be the same advice to myself; best not to share…

Too late.
