Six O’Clock Vintage
Seek those images
that constitute the wild,
the lion and the virgin,
the harlot and the child.
Find in middle air
an eagle on the wing,
recognize the five
that make the Muses sing.
| W.B Yeats, Those Images
Cube Wars

Part I : Decay
A certain magazine once sent out a survey to some artists. The artists were from various disciplines; some were painters, others were writers—even some sculptors were included, and naturally there was a sprinkling of photographers and musicians. The survey asked an important question of these folk: what is beauty?Now of ...
Thesbian Extraordinaire
So I am in a play coming out soon; it's not Broadway, which is good because it means that you can come to it for mere pennies; actually free, I've heard. I'm not in a main role, which undoubtedly disappoints some of you, but I do appear in an entire ...
Graphite
Spring cleaning brought about the death of my 15 year old pencil collection; I threw them all away—it was hard, but so were the erasers so I guess I did the right thing.In other news, my soccer team managed to score 3 more goals on Saturday, we were even in ...
Incongruities
My dress shoes finally stopped squeaking. I just noticed this fact the other day; I was able to walk down the hall without people plugging their ears and rolling on the floor in agony, for the awful spine-tingling, bladder-releasing sonic vulgarity of the squeak was no more.* * * * ...
Mid Afternoon
Nothing to say nothing to do except Hammer keys and hope that Bits of text align joyfully on the page.In this day and at this timeA warm retreat with a witty sageIs the desire that wanders nearWhen all else wanders away.

A couple things:My soccer team scored for the first time this season on Saturday (it was our fourth game). Though we failed to bring home the coveted Victory we took a significant step towards league domination, i.e. we put two shots in the net. Naturally such a success ...
Parchment
I was sorting through some letters I wrote (I keep copies of that sort of thing for future reference); here is an excerpt from one of them dated January 15, 2004:“I’m not here this isn’t happening…†moans Thom York in Radiohead’s “How to Disappear Completely.†As if denial is ...
“You’re a Phony, a Big Fat Phony! Hey Everybody, He’s a Phony!”
I know that China is the home of iPhone rip-offs and lead-filled Colgate, but it appears that their duplicity and fakery don't end with electronics and domestic household products.
China admitted faking the opening fireworks of the Olympic Opening Ceremony as well as faking the voice of the cute little singer ...
Mountain Lion Drags Dog out of Owner’s Bedroom
Crazy story, this is a small front range town just southwest of the Denver area. I go mountain biking in this area all the time.
A mountain lion slunk into the master bedroom of an Idledale home early Monday, snatched a yellow Labrador retriever and vanished.
Officers are hunting the mountain lion ...
iPhone Apps
I spent the weekend at a cabin in the mountains and so didn't get a chance to download the the latest iPhone software update until late Sunday evening. After a frustrating flurrey of "restore, verify, restore" proceedings I finally was forced to delete by back up and do a full ...
The Fattest States in America
Another reason to move to Colorado, the home of lean, well-muscled and tan super people :)
Flat Tires
I keep getting flat tires during my rides.
In less than a month I've gotten two flats in remote sections of each ride's respective trail. The first flat was on Three Sisters trail in Evergreen. I somehow managed to rip a huge gash in my tube and found myself pedaling on ...
