i'd rather follow the shoe. (how creepy... i haven't discussed "life of brian" in years, and yet a silly local DJ played the "brian" theme song on the radio today.) not until august or september? so that would mean that the film doesn't show until then. what a drag. i was looking forward to a springtime release! well, i gotta run, so have a nice day, since i'll be tied up in meeting nonsense for a long time.

"Sickening smell, eh?" Shwaford smiled as he sat down on the small tree stump next to Friday. She had her head between her knees, breathing slowly. "My first duty was tough, too," he said to her, putting his arm around her shoulders. She jumped at first, but slowly began to ease herself to him. Inching closer and closer, not only enjoying the warmth he provided, but also the after shave he put too much of on this morning. Anything, she thought, smelled better than the Death Pits of Nuntog. She curled against him, and in lifting her head, saw him for the first time. He wasn't all that bad looking. For a soldier, anyway.

I would say its more like 'striking.' Pose, pose. Conservativism isn't about preserving the past and traditional ways, its about providing ourselves a world that puts no limits on growth and evolution. That's how it used to be, ideas, criticisms, diatribes, monologues, oohh baby.

Sacrilege! Eggs should be placed in a pot of fast boiling rainwater, and boiled for exactly 3 minutes and 17 seconds, then cooled under the cold tap for another 3 minutes and 13 seconds. This guarantees that the white is set, while the yolk stays runny, like proper egg yolk has to be! All topped with 3 oz. of tomato ketchup.

a recipe for a solid white and runny yolk. Ahhh, tomorrow, two eggs, soft boiled, toast.... mmmmm. Dipping the toast into the yolk. Now the real question. I like to pop the egg out of the shell and into a bowl. Salt it heavily with morrocan wind salt. Ram the toast into it until the glowing, fluorecent yolk is gone and then eat the remaining crints. And wash it down with COFFEE in Vast galvanized buckets.

Scientists discovered that the egg itself was a seperate organism from the facehugger, which had some kind of low-level metabolism from a battery like energy source which when it detected nearby movement with the tendrils branching off from it's base it activated/woke up the face hugger inside.

robyn seems to have resolved an internal struggle between Humanism and Spiritualism. some say that the two can't coexist, but robyn has made it clear that they can. while his songs often concern love, lovers, sex, and odd acquaintances, his songs on death and other weighty matters never seem out of place. In fact, there is often shared mood and imagery, highlighting his consistent worldview. It changes, but only in an evolutionary path, as he grows older and wiser. he may seem rather pagan, in that he seems to worship all that surrounds him, but the monotheistic model seems a bit dated, really. his form of paganism isn't superstitious, but rather, enlightened.

Here's a good passage (but then, they all are) - "My theory is that humanity is doomed unless we make some kind of evolutionary leap. I can't see us going around and around in the same agonies indefinitely. As technoloty improves, sooner or later the whole thing will rub itself out, or we will rub it out, in which case we'll probably take everything else with us. I believe that the earth is a form of intelligence. It's Gaia, which is life, or God, if you know what I mean. It isn't a moral sort of thing; it's just that generally life works itself out. Gaia is the idea that the whole world is a living intelligent organism. Nature generally manages to regulate itself, but every so often something crops up like the human that doesn't really fit in. I think something will physically evolve in us. In my story {in Moss Elixir} I suggest that it's a third eye opening--that the skin on your forehead rips open and a new eyeball pokes through and with that new eyeball you can really see and empathize with other people. It's kind of what everybody thought they were doing with drugs, although in fact the drugs are only making them more remote, more selfish, more paranoid. If the true empathy were made manifest, then when somebody cut their knee, everybody would feel it. It wouldn't be complete loss of identity, but people would start to buoy each other up. They'd be able to sympathize with each other a lot more, and maybe cure each other's cancer. . .I think there has got to be a physical change, and when this happens most of our art will become irrelevant. Things like Shakespeare's and Dostoevsky's writings won't mean anything because we won't be in that same kind of pain that humanity was in when those words were written
