Major busy in work at the mo', but came across some interesting bits in the work I'm doing:
"
Michael Ignatieff: "The social trends seem to be carrying us in an ever more individualistic direction. The fastest-growing population group in our society is composed of the aged, the divorced and the single, who live alone. The way we spend our money, the way we spend our time off, even the way we travel, tends towards isolation and dispersion; Friday night at the takeaway; Saturday night at the video shop; Sunday morning at Texas DIY; Monday morning fighting the motorway traffic"
However, some people would take issue with this pessimistic analysis, arguing that community ties are still strong in many localities and among groups united by ethnicity or culture, while newer forms of community are developing, such as the ‘virtual communities’ available online.

more about the point of individualistic society, people deciding to become more independent, but still clinging onto 'communities'
Came across my copy of Sophie's World at the weekend

I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but Me, Master B and Blue Shark think your a hot H2G2 babe. (hence the drooling, It was late )
It was such a suprise to see you. and I'm so glad I struggled to get to the meet.

Yes goodness your struggles! I thought you were going to put them in your journal?
After leaving you lot, Stealth and I managed to completely miss the Holborn tube entrance, strode down streets for about 10 minutes (he walks waaaaay to fast!) until I stopped and asked a beggar for directions , made it to Euston, trains only went to Watford, managed to get a coach at 2am, got home by 3am!
I've heard talk elsewhere that you kept people up by talking in your sleep!

I think you must have had the same kind of trip getting home as I did getting there.
Getting back was peacefull, didn't get back until 1am monday morning very odd.
I always find that all the lovly women are never available, I think I'll stick to my Teru anyway.

Yes, er, I hope you found the Kama version and not the Japanies TV thingy, doing a search for TeruTeruBozu is useless.

Hello
Queeglesproggit - Keeper of the evil Thingite Avon Lady Army and Mary Poppins's bag of darkness.. Posted Jun 30, 2003
and then I was more confused, but now things seem to be clearing. I'd read a bit of your journal, and thought Teru was the overseas 'friend' you mentioned.
However, I now know that I should never bother trying to search TeruTeruBozu
Where's yer photos then? Nobody's got any out yet
And I forgot to say thanks just for being such a lovely guy on Saturday , I'd been nervous and may have ended up just staying at one table all night if I hadn't met you and come over and nattered
Now I want to do more meets!
