urban archipelago

A term created by sex columnist and liberal Dan Savage in the wake of the 2004 Presidential Election to describe the concentration of the political left in the United States near major cities and college towns in terms of islands of diversity in a sea of conformity. The implication is that the islands have their own interests to attend to and should disregard the sea.

It is thought that this exists because rural communities tend to be more isolated from other cultures than urban communities, and because people tend to leave the rural world for an education in urban areas and not go back.

The original article can be read at www.urbanarchipelago.com.
Although I'm not completely on board with the idea of the Urban archipelago, the idea of cities as islands is certainly a talking point.

single by choice

1. Gay and in the closet.
2. An utter tool, and incapable of getting laid in a woman's prison with a fistful of pardons.
3. Sincere, delusional, and very, very repressed.
So I went out to a bar last night and struck out with four different women. But it's okay, I'm single by choice.`

plastic tree

nightlight

A stub signal left behind in an old format for users who have yet to convert to the new format. The term comes from the SAFER Act, a US law allowing analog TV stations to keep broadcasting information on digital conversion (and, in some cases, local news and emergency information) after the station has otherwise gone all-digital.
I tried running some old Mac software on an old Mac, but forgot the software I was using was PowerPC-only. Good thing the nightlight box popped up; now I have to go find my PowerBook G3.
