"That's why we're born, honeygirl," she says. "To learn how to love each other. And it takes all the time we've got. Some folks never get the hang of it." --Amber Coverdale Sumrall, "Siesta" --- After the garden party, the garden. --Ruth Yarrow, "May" --- "Sometimes your shallowness is so thorough, it's almost like depth." --Daria --- Does frog sperm look like tadpoles? 00-6-23 --- The final premove move. The clouds were pretty before, lit from below. I was trying to place the movie or book scene that entered my head- something like "this world... I'm going to miss it so!" I realized it might be John Travolta in "Michael". 00-6-23 --- The plight of man: short lived and headachey. 00-6-26 --- "If your sexual fantasies were truly of interest to others, they would no longer be fantasies." --Fran Lebowitz --- "This is what the Lord asks of you; only this, to act justly, to love tenderly, and to walk humbly with your God." --Micah 6:8 --- "Being 'in a state of nudity' is not an inherently expressive condition." --Sandra Day O'Connor, in a Surpreme Court ruling upholding a ban on nude dancing --- "Mr. Madison, I am from the 21st century!" "Impossible!" "I thought you might not believe me, so I brought PROOF! Try this!" [Pours cup of Sprite] "Fizzy... sweet... refreshing! [...] Truly the beverage of an idyllic future!" --Bob and James Madison, "Bob's Adventure Through Time", [Ruben Bolling's Tom the Dancing Bug] --- Information wants to be anthropomorphized. --Golias on slashdot.org --- Brought Denali the Cat home last night. We're not rushing with showing her to Murph. Sweet tempered cat. Keren mentioned this one photography class that was "shoot a roll of film a day." I might try adding something to my life. Two nights ago I had a mortality attack based on a NYTimes piece on the idea that nanotech might beat aging... man, I'd hate to miss immortality by a few decades. On the other hand, me a few decades from now wouldn't be me. I wrote to humanism, cecil-adams, and sf-written, but they all seem to be more focused on the 'measure of a good life' question I asked with it. But it's harder to come to peace with death when you think that there might be an option; should I be angry with myself for not being a big health nut? 00-6-30 --- If I were Han Solo, I wouldn't have named my ship the Millennium Falcon, I'd have named it "You have clearance to leave," cause I bet that would get me out of a lot of jams. --Larry Hollister --- |
