Mornings

Where have my dreams run off to these days? Each morning I wake up and they melt into the ceiling before I can remember where I am.

Speaking Tactically

"THE generals, the old chestnut goes, are always fighting the last war. But that doesn't mean they can't improvise, adapt and overcome."--Thomas Vinciguerra

Truthfully: Who's telling it?

" My intention was not to deal with the problem of truth, but with the problem of truth-teller or truth-telling as an activity. By this I mean that, for me, it was not a question of analyzing the internal or external criteria that would enable the Greeks and Romans, or anyone else, to recognize whether a statement or proposition is true or not. At issue for me was rather the attempt to consider truth-telling as a specific activity, or as a role. " Discourse & Truth, Concluding remarks by Foucault.

Big Night in Little Italy

Little Italy puts on a film festival every summer on Friday nights. The crowd gathers and amasses itself in the streets armed with lawn chairs and bottles of wine, dinners from the area restaurants on makeshift tables, and much conversation. This picture is actually from last year on the last night of the festival at the showing of Cinema Paradiso.

Tonight, the last movie for the festival this year, was much more crowded. The movie showing was Big Night.

That's Bully

Oh my gosh, now I really have to get a PS2.

Runs With Scissors

"You know, that simple, brief jaunt to Montreal kicked up some dust, producing the kind of internal unrest that gets me withdrawing a bit -- doing what absolutely needs to be done (errands, gym, lawnmowing/gardening, making meals) and backing off from just about everything else. Staying offline. Retreating to the sofa with a book or with the tube cranked. Staring out the window at beautiful Vermont countryside, thinking (or not).

We all have ways of coping. Better two or three days of retreat than some of the ways I dealt with internal unrest in earlier years -- coping mechanisms cobbled together with little or no sane, positive guidance, producing many colorful stories along with deep, subtle bruising.

In many ways, my life is good. I am well cared for by this universe. But big changes are needed."

Jefe and I were driving around taking pictures today and we went to 2 parts of town in particular, Curtis Bay and Park Heights. After taking pictures all day Jefe asked if he could see the pictures I'd taken. This one, from South Baltimore, made Jefe laugh out loud, spontaneously:



After all, we were in South Baltimore.

I'm not looking for a fight. I'm really not. But a certain picture was posted of me awhile back and now I'm drunk with power.
