I had a moment back there. A moment, I’d later recognize, that a lot of influential people in my life have experienced, perhaps in their own way, but nonetheless… I had to stop and think my way out of a terrible possibility.

I haven't watched Salt lately. And I might watch the Expendables again... just for the part where Rourke's character is painting that acoustic guitar saying that it was for a girl, but she left so he was just going to smash it to pieces. Very dramatic ( Read more... )

So this is uh... I never did learn the words to that song... um ( Read more... )

Vyšehrad is a castle located in the city of Prague… it’s beautiful there. Karel Capek, who is credited with the introduction and popularization of the word “robot” is buried in the cemetary just outside. Approach the cliff near sunset and you’ll be treated to pretty much the best view in town ( Read more... )

I don't know if the heavens broke open today. Sometimes, I feel inconsolable - like I've been cleaved in two by unnatural forces and I must struggle to regain control of my senses. I lose focus and my mind wanders towards horrible ideas. And, conversely, sometimes I approach indescribable relief and satisfaction - like talking to an old friend, ( Read more... )
