Floating around the universe in search of the answer that lies just beyond my grasp. It has occurred to me to be thankful for many things. In fact, There are more things to be thankful for than to complain about. It is the beginning of the holiday season. A time of great joy and great sorrow. No season is without it's ups and downs. No place without it's loneliness and happiness. Here we are in what seems to be history repeating itself, yet we are on the cusp of the great unknown. Today I want to celebrate the cooperation and hardiness of human species not it's brittleness and corruption. I am thankful for bright sunny days. I am thankful for rainy days that bring flowers and life. I am thankful for a friends' joy in the birth of their daughter. I am thankful for the presence of my friends. Mostly I am thankful for being alive and well. Happy Thanksgiving


Here's to the Universe

A Worldwind of looting a firestorm of Fear




I have been thinking about movie begginings that just rock. Every now and then a movie will start with something that just blows you away. I was thinking of this as I watched the start of Road Warrior. The memories that cover the orginal Mad Max and the two great warrior tribes transcend the time that they were written . So I decided to list a few of the best Movie starts that came off the top of my head. Steve Buscemi's story in the bar in Desperado is one of my all time favorites. Just the way the story unfolds and is told is wonderful. The life story so far of Amelie is funny and ironic. James Bond movies are a treasure trove of interesting starts. I particularly like the World is not enough. Darth Vader's entrance into Star wars is another.
