"Je suis ce que je suis"

by Spencer Ross
04/07/02

"Je suis ce que je suis"

Vas-tu à la plage?
Tu ne me demandes jamais si j'y veux aller
Suis-je un mystère
Et puis, je te fais mal à l'aise?
C'n'est pas une complexité
C'est un fait de la vie
Mais
Je suis ce que je suis
Et rien est compris

Vas-tu à la lune?
C'n'est pas plus brillant que tes yeux
Pourquoi est-ce qu'on cherche
La rivière de la vie
La vie n'est pas sûr
Et tu m'embrouilles
Mais
Je suis ce que je suis
Et rien est compris

Si toutes les planètes
Et toutes les étoiles
Faisaient une ligne
Ça me plairait
Si tu me parles et tu me comprends

Une énigme n'est pas une énigme
Et même les devinettes les plus complexes
Sont résolues
Mais
Je suis ce que je suis
Et rien est compris

Vas-tu à mon cœur?
Peut-être rester dans ma vie?
Comme le vent souffle le sable?
Comme la conscience tourmente l'humanité?
Ou suis-je seul dans le monde?
Mais
Je suis ce que je suis
Et rien est compris

"I am what I am"

Are you going to the beach?
You never ask me if I want to go
Am I a mystery
Then do I make you feel uncomfortable?
It's nothing complex
It's a fact of life
But
I am what I am
And nothing is understood

Are you going to the moon?
It's not as bright as your eyes
Why are we looking for
The streams of life
Life is not certain
And you confuse me
But
I am what I am
And nothing is understood

If all the planets
And all the stars aligned
It would please me
If you talked to me and you understood me

An enigma is not an enigma
And even the most complex riddles
Are solved
But
I am what I am
And nothing is understood

Are you going to my heart?
Maybe stay in my life?
As the wind blows the wind?
As consciousness plagues humanity?
Or am I alone in the world?
But
I am what I am
And nothing is understood

    


Google Finance

I've become a big advocate of Google. I think they truly have managed to break the hold of Microsoft and if anything, have also demonstrated the sheer power of the cliched Web 2.0. This finance site is no small potatoes either. The graphs are so simple yet so lush in data, and the rest of the pages are no different. Perhaps the most appealing feature is the portfolio which, with a Google account, lets you enter in how many shares of a stock you own and track all of its vitals in one page. I entered in my 401k breakdown and at any given time, it lets me visualise my account better than my 401k planner does.



Gastroenteritis

The stomach flu got me at the end of the year, making for the worst sickness I've felt in probably 10-15 years. Every hour, I was either on or over the toilet and at times, had to keep a bag next to the bed for those times I couldn't make it to the toilet fast enough. From what I've heard, I wasn't the only one to catch this horrible disaster in the past 2-3 weeks. I was supposed to go to Andrew's for the opening of the 7 year old time capsule and video but the stomach flu sidelined my plans (I'm finally at about 85% recovery) and for that, you are the asshole of the week.
