And then..

You tube offered me the opportunity to watch this video of a Rush song I have always liked:

Take a look at the poster on the studio wall.

I have been doing alot of thinking about what I want from and where I am and where I am going with my life in preparation for my first xmas with my mother in over 20 years. And the only real question that I have is: why do we spend so much time thinking of the past and what might have been?

I spent this morning watching Mulholland Drive and playing guitar while I watched it. The first time I saw this movie 3 or 4 years ago it scared the hell out of me. Tonight I watched it again while playing guitar with the recorder going. We'll see what it sounds like. But MD again is about the past.

In memory of Robert Altman on his death, I DLed The Player and that led me to DL Cinema Paradiso which, of course, led me to DL MD. These 3 together, in pretty much any order, destroy Hollywood and the movies. Or at least their mystique. They destroy it thoroughly. So much the better.

alright

OK, I stopped posting here in June because I didn't have anything to add to the political discourse that was going on. It seemed then that the people and media were finally fucking waking up and last night they proved it. I am told that AP, Reuters, ABC,CBS, and NBC are all calling the VA race for Webb which gives us both houses back for 2 years. Good. Do something with it.

I might even close this blog if I knew how.

But, WE FUCKING WON!
