The times for new roman

Another quick vidya of some surfing at Agate beach on a low tide. Beginning to feel a bit vain with all these videos of myself, but I hope to create something with all this footage, perhaps an instructional video or just a promo for the shop. Whatever the case, it has been fun to see these little snippets and learn a little bit from it. Other than the howling winds, life has been pretty mellow. Surf has been here, but just not that big lately. Looking very forward to the trip down south with some friends into some warm surf. Until then, I have to give a little grief to the current journalists.... what in the hell does zeitgeist mean? When did people start using this word on a daily basis? And 'commodification'? I heard it twice in the same sentence on the CBC today. I know that language is used to provide a more descriptive term, but can't we use simple words to generate a simple language and a precise thought? I know I'm a hippo-critter sometimes using larger words, but I have to wonder what these new trendy language words mean and how long they will last. I guess I'll recline on my chesterfield to reflect on the fact that I should probably read more and get caught up with the times new roman.
