The Long Good-bye


Another post for #ds106, Raymond Chandler's The Long Good-bye. Photo of Long Beach, California, by me, graphic from here, and lyrics from Keating Ronan's 'The Long Goodbye' from here.

  1. I like the Chandler smog filled sky. I'm a big fan of Long Beach, California, lived there for two years, and actually worked at Parker's Lighthouse as a busboy, which is right around corner from the Queen Mary. Some of the most spectacular sunsets I have ever seen in my life where a result of all the terrible smog in the air. I love the dissonanace of beauty and what's bad for you---very noir in its own right.

My Twitter Advertsers

My list isn't as long as Audrey Watters's, weighing in at only 23 pages (to her 33). Note that all of these companies are wasting their money, as I block all Twitter advertisements.

You are currently part of 2689 audiences from 1338 advertisers.
You can opt out of interest-based advertising in your personalization and data settings. This will change the ads you see on Twitter, however it won't remove you from advertisers' audiences."
Twitter is on the bubble. I don't expect I'll be using the service by the end of the year.
