We have an ad on a new site. Someone who is way cooler than me said that our ad is cool and the new site is cool too. Please go to www.thisisfly.com to check it out. Our banner is on page 25.
This is what Wikipedia says about Cool… Cool is an aesthetic of attitude, behavior, comportment, appearance, style and Zeitgeist. Because of the varied and changing connotations of cool, as well its subjective nature, the word has no single meaning. It has associations of composure and self-control (cf. the OED definition) and is often used as an expression of admiration or approval.
We had a big softball win last night. We won by a run in the bottom of the last inning. The first baseman (baseperson) on the other team had an unassisted double play and I gave her mom a hug. This is an inside story that is mostly uninteresting even to those inside.
Lester Bangs: That's because we're uncool. And while women will always be a problem for us, most of the great art in the world is about that very same problem. Good-looking people don't have any spine. Their art never lasts. They get the girls, but we're smarter.
William Miller: I can really see that now.
Lester Bangs: Yeah, great art is about conflict and pain and guilt and longing and love disguised as sex, and sex disguised as love... and let's face it, you got a big head start.
William Miller: I'm glad you were home.
Lester Bangs: I'm always home. I'm uncool.
William Miller: Me too!
Lester Bangs: The only true currency in this bankrupt world if what we share with someone else when we're uncool.
