The Digital Tool Factory Blog

I recently came across this Simple Dollar blog post – “Why I Prefer Living Rural” and largely agreed with it.  I did have two quibbles.

1. There was no mention of privacy and anonymity, the two greatest things about living in the city.  It is impossible to keep your life exclusively yours in the county.  Lots of people like being in a close community, but I enjoy living unknown.
2. Culture – the problem with the country is not the lack of “culture”, but rather one must actively participate in cultural activities if you want to have any.  In the city culture is passive, in the country it’s something you make.

They are all some variation of the following:

1. I have friends and we like to have fun!
2. My possessions make me so happy!
3. Join me in my outrage at a gross mis-characterization of a news story I found online
4. While the number of things I have to say is at zero, my desire to talk is at 10.  Therefore please enjoy this YouTube link
5. I’m about to do something I don’t know anything about, please offer a technical opinion so if anything goes wrong I can blame someone.
