			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m currently 32,900 feet over Wisconsin traveling westward at roughly 505mph.</p>
<p>Not long ago I decided I&#8217;d blog more.  And, for no reason other than timing this is the first entry in that attempt.  I promise further entries will be at least as shallow and unforgettable as what you see here.  Move along now, you have something better to do with your time.</p>
<p>By the way, I&#8217;m not nor was I ever a psychology major.  I just finally watched <a href="http://www.burningannie.com">Burning Annie</a>, a film written and produced by folks I knew in college.  It&#8217;s worth a look.  The line &#8220;It&#8217;s ok, I&#8217;m a psych major&#8221; is indeed from the film.  The line caught my fancy.  Now for all I know it&#8217;s a line from some other movie, as Burning Annie does reference quite a few other flicks (Annie Hall being primary, but good mentions of Kevin Smith and others).  But given my current altitude and velocity I&#8217;m unable to Google the phrase.  I will, however, insert <a href="http://google.com/search?q=%22its+ok+im+a+psych+major%22">this here very link</a> for everyone&#8217;s enjoyment.</p>
<p>Brief interlude&#8230;  I actually <em>have</em> seen Burning Annie once before, just not in a quality setting.  They showed it at an arts event of some sort in NYC, and I happen to be in town (for Macworld of all coincidences).  The film was shown in what could have been a concrete bunker &#8211; the audio quality was disastrous.  I was able to follow along, but this was my first viewing where I could actually <em>hear</em> the thing.  (Sad when one considers a jet a comparatively superior setting for film audio.)</p>
<p>I&#8217;d insert a profitable link to purchase the DVD from Amazon, but without internet access I&#8217;m also unable to do such a thing.  Plus I believe it&#8217;s possible to purchase from the official Burning Annie web site as linked above, and them being the actual artists deserve the cash more than I.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m headed towards the annual Steve Jobs worship event, the Macworld Expo in San Francisco.  I&#8217;ll be staying with <a href="http://www.iamherb.com/">Herb</a> (who needs to blog more often himself).</p>
<p>Currently listening to the Waking Life soundtrack, well worth the listen.</p>
<p>So the question is, what shall I blog about and how often shall I attempt the creation of new entries?  Should I pick a topic, and become an <em>&#8220;expert&#8221;</em> in said topic?  Or just ramble.  Currently I&#8217;m rambling, and honestly not doing a fascinating job about it.  Must be that darned altitude.  I have a few posts in my head which I&#8217;ll get down on virtualpaper soon enough.  Monday&#8217;s a lay-low day for me, the day before the keynote address.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve recently found myself an extremely minor participant in two national/international events.  I should probably say something about them.  They&#8217;re in extreme contrast to one another, about as extreme as one could imagine.  But not today, or at least not within such a ferociously dull post.  Seriously, this is tremendously poor writing, lacking wit, substance, and style.  Not that I have the right to claim expertise on any of the three but I&#8217;m often a few steps upwards of where we are today.  So please, stop reading now if you haven&#8217;t fallen asleep and read earlier posts either here or over at <a href="http://www.alysaandmitch.com/blog/">http://www.AlysaandMitch.com/blog/</a>.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re now over Wyoming, so I think I&#8217;ll watch another movie.  King of Kong, perhaps.</p>
<p>(No, I could not actually post while in the air.  But keeping true to the &#8220;I can&#8217;t look that up&#8221; theme I&#8217;m posting without cheating.  I also did not watch King of Kong yet &#8211; listened to the soundtrack from Juno, took a nap, and eventually landed.)<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So here it is, mitchcohen.com, the blog for Mitch Cohen of Douglas, MA.  It&#8217;s not my first blog &#8211; that would be <a href="http://www.alysaandmitch.com/">alysaandmitch.com</a>.  What I think I&#8217;ll do is use that for family and personal stuff, and use this one more for commentary.  I&#8217;ll certainly include info and thoughts about the great town in which we live &#8211; <a href="http://www.douglasma.org/">Douglas, Massachusetts</a>.  You&#8217;re also likely to see ramblings on politics, technology, film, and whatever else comes up.  It&#8217;ll be an opportunity for me to write, which I enjoy.  I&#8217;m not sure if I&#8217;ll get any regular readers but that&#8217;s not the point.</p>
<p>To start things off I&#8217;ve added, in addition to this post, the text from the original mitchcohen.com site which I created a few months back as I ran for the Board of Selectmen here in Douglas.  The voters were kind enough to elect me, and I&#8217;m six months into a three year term.</p>]]></content:encoded>
