Random

The word random is used to express lack of purpose, cause, order, or predictability in non-scientific parlance.

I wonder if online linking will re-define the term?

Random links, and their transmittal, seem to be predictable these days. You definitely know when some link you received in a random email is going to be a big hit.

Why do you know this?

How do you know that a video of a man bashing a disco record over his head will tickle a global funnybone?

And chaos ?— the primal emptiness of space? Well, the Greeks hadn't encountered our space or myspace when they coined the term chaos.

Certainly there are other words to describe our space. Certainly their are patterns and organization here, in this empty space.

But our interaction with it?

Isn't it rather random and chaotic?

We're viral. And viral always signifies, but does not necessarily mean, social chaos, something we can't control.

I seek random and chaos, but my room is rather clean; my flight or fight of fancy is too highly attuned to negotiate this here rote world.

I really do think I was born a warrior princess who is bored with a world stacked up with too many matresses — too numbed to the peas of life.

Meh. A glass of wine and my world unravels.

p.s. Click on the random link a few times. This wikipedia link will shunt you to random pages. Gawd I love Wikipedia. It's the best random around. So full of it.
