Christmas Eve just ended, so I assume it’s Christmas. I should really just go to sleep and let the new day somehow magically dawn on me and make life white and soft and better. Watching reel to reel films of people long old or dead has put me in an extremely pensive mood. The projector... Read More

For the last two and a half months I’ve been working on a wedding video for two good friends of mine, Mike and Gina. It’s been one of those projects that just seems to snowball and new things keep turning up. Well, I set it in my mind that I wanted to have this thing... Read More

I did a really stupid thing and started a massive overhaul of my blog the week before Christmas, so please forgive the mess you see when you visit. You could look at is this way: it’s a surprise each time you come. Sometimes the surprise is a pretty page, sometimes the surprise is a broken... Read More

My hair? Well, indeed, I am not such a prig As to wish to conceal that I’m wearing a wig. One eye’s out plumb and I look like a fright? Perhaps I have not put the glass one in right. My teeth? Oh, well, there now, dare if you can My dentist the right to... Read More

While going through some of my grandmother’s belongings after she passed away, I discovered a bank ledger book with dates as far back as 1842 in it. On almost every frail page in exquisite penmanship is an original poem written by my great grandmother. She has even marked some of them as songs – unfortunately... Read More

Well, I don’t think bombing a city is necessarily the best way to approach a problem (notice I think Islamic facism is a problem), but neither is ignoring them and yanking on Patton’s chain like Roosevelt did.

Illogical and Self-Contradictory Reactions
Man Commits Suicide At Ground Zero Over Bush’s Reelection “Franca’s friend, Jeffim Kuznetsov, a 25-year-old student from Russia who lives in Atlanta, said the suicide is evidence of how deeply many Americans were affected by Kerry’s defeat: ‘It’s a national tragedy,” he said. “This election is devastating to all who believe in democracy’.” This is...

Normality Has The Final Say (or Bush Wins!)
http://election.sos.state.oh.us/results/SingleRaceSummary.aspx?race=PP This was it! A closer nail-biter than the Yankees-Sox game 7, but with greater ramifications.
