“the atheist”

"Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins explains why God is a delusion, religion is a virus, and America has slipped back into the Dark Ages." This is the one-line enticement to a delightful (though rather short) article/interview on Salon. Highly recommended. (Look for it under the "News and Politics" heading)

hmmm. blue.

at the palazzo pitti, last spring... this may be my least favorite time of day; when it has grown blue enough outside that it seems dark inside, but one is reluctant to turn on the incandescents for not wanting to relinquish the daylight part of the day... i am happy that we've gotten back round… Continue reading hmmm. blue.

a persistent mood.

anyway. stream of thoughts- a gutter running down the streets of confused and pathetic-- oh, not the gutter where the "dirty" thoughts are; just a normal gutter where stuff winds up after it rains- candy wrappers, cigarette butts, news pages and the like. just regular.
