Human Bowling and Big Brother
I had a dream of my neighborhood last night. Hundreds of young people were lining the sidewalks on St. Peters Ave by the park. There was some sort of street competition where the guys were throwing these balls and trying to knock out the opposing side of people or something. Like a huge game of bowling but humans as pins? I dunno.
I'm reading Born Red, a memoir of a Red Guard. The Cultural revolution was terrible, but I can sort of see how one can be swept into the movement. Students suddenly had the power to take vengeance over their teachers who had once picked on them or gave them a lot of homework.
I returned my hatstand --- formerly the Bhangra sign from Diwali today. Now my hats are in the corner somewhere.
I walked all around campus yesterday. I went to West to drop off BOOM posters. I went to North for gym. I went to the theater at night. Man, I was tired.
There are many "live cam views of Cornell" online. Now, one can see if a person is walking by WSH or through the Engineering Quad. Cool, but sorta like Big Brother is watching. Creepy.
