I really enjoy watching the rain from my window next to my computer. I don't know why people get depressed from the rain. I rather enjoy watching it.
I was watching Lost in Translation the other day and thinking about all the little undertones that are present in it. Like Bill Murray's character hating saddened by watching himself on Japanese television. Also watching the scene where they go to a karaoke made me think about the one time I went to one of those little rooms and you have private karaoke with your friends.
I enjoy public karaoke. Where the rest of the bar either loves you or hates you.

I want to hit the road again
Sitting around this suburb is driving me crazy. I am reading the Plague by Albert Camus. You should read it as well.

Messy Beast
Life can be uncertain and who really knows what will happen tomorrow. I am laying on a couch and I don't know what will happen tomorrow either.

James Tate
Last night I went to Real Art Ways in Hartford CT to see James Tate read his poetry. He is an older gentleman who walks with a cane and his poetry makes people laugh and then think. Hard. He is a professor at Umass Amherst. Here is one of his poems. My former teacher and friend C.S. Carrier read as well. I hope to read the next time they have a poetry reading there. I'll let you know. Read some James Tate Poetry.

hey honey
Anita Thompson - on her husband Hunter S. Thompson's thoughts about freedom
"He spent his life studying freedom, promoting it, and finally writing about it. I believe a large portion of his formative years were spent researching what was necessary to attain freedom. And during that time he had to learn, perhaps the hard way, what to avoid-what is the antifreedom? I think he learned that fear is the antifreedom-because as we gain freedom, which is the opposite of security, we also reap fear. And fear can drive us away from freedom, in a hurry."
A nation governed by fear can never be truly free.
Read a book please.
