The 5 Sentence Solution To Email Overload
I discovered a link the other day (on Zen Habits) that changed my life — or at least it cleaned out my inbox.
The idea is to reply to all emails using no more than five sentences.
Mike Davidson wrote a great post, titled “A Low-Fi Solution To Email Overload: Sentenc.es”, where he explains it in detail:
“Every e-mail I send to anyone, regardless of subject or recipient, will be five sentences or less. Like a cinquain. Ideally, it would be a 160 character count like an SMS message, but since that would require an actual e-mail plug-in (viz. “work”), we’ll go with the much-easier-to-count concept of sentences instead.”

The World Is Waiting For The Sunrise
Ken Aoki doing an amazing 4-string banjo performance of “The World Is Waiting For The Sunrise”.
This tune has long been one of my favorites.
And here’s a version by Les Paul and Mary Ford:

Goodman’s Shocking Arrest At RNC
Click here to read FULL STORY at Democracy Now! website.
“ST. PAUL–Democracy Now! host Amy Goodman and producers Sharif Abdel Kouddous and Nicole Salazar have all been released from police custody in St. Paul following their illegal arrest by Minneapolis Police on Monday afternoon.
All three were violently manhandled by law enforcement officers. Abdel Kouddous was slammed against a wall and the ground, leaving his arms scraped and bloodied. He sustained other injuries to his chest and back. Salazar’s violent arrest by baton-wielding officers, during which she was slammed to the ground while yelling, “I’m Press! Press!,” resulted in her nose bleeding, as well as causing facial pain. Goodman’s arm was violently yanked by police as she was arrested.”
