well, since I didn't participate in the poetry jam at Arcanum, I probably should keep my opinions to myself...NAW!, I am never good at keeping my trap shut, so here's a bit of what I think (hey, quit yawning!) I feel lost at Arcanum Cafe, it's like Woodstock only bigger, with this mass of humanity d...

utilities of space before the fall
It is the flame that hardens metal the fire that tempers glass burns away all that is not essential to ash This pain in my heart is afire gut wrenching pain burns twists like a tornado dances across my very soul wicks of sentimentality lit candles of prayers sent smoke rises to the heavens peace swe...

Zlatko, this was an enjoyable read and pushed some of my buttons. As artists, we are reflections of our environments, our societies, all those influences that stimulate us to be creative. That is, if we are really true to our art (maybe that is why some of my newest pieces are more twisted, dangled ...

I know, I know...sometimes movies are like 'cliff notes' versions because what we can imagine is always so much greater than what we can portray. This was a beautifully produced, directed and filmed movie but the movie in my mind when I read a book sticks there somewhere where a film cannot go. Than...

Cider House Rules
Every Wednesday, without fail or our 'asses are grasses' we take son Nate to the vid store. We drop him off (it is one of the only independances this Down's boy has) and go shop for groceries with the standard, "DON'T talk to strangers!" (alas, no one is strange to Nate), "DON'T leave the store with...

Great article Annie, thanks for the link. I have been watching that building since it began and think, "It's about time!" Isn't it so very wonderful that 'our' creative Mark had a part in it. On another note, when I go get stamps at the post office, Cec (a philatelist ((NO, it's not nasty...get your...

A bet
(Note: This was sent to me as one of those chain letters that you are supposed to pass along to five friends in order to incur luck. I normally dislike those little letters but this one made me laugh and I figured by posting it here to more than five friends, I was at least hedging my bet. SooZen) A...

K, I loved the gingerbread poem and in living color too! We are food for thought. Lrod, I am Gingerbread too. I cried when Smarty just didn't make it history and won the Triple. I know he had it in him because he is truly great. I hope my thoroughbred makes history and I am there by his side all the...

Hes, Stella's answers are very telling as to her beauty and soul and the kind of mom she has had. I loved her answers. I have never played this game before so will give it a go...

hey toe...this was darn funny and clever too. Mtmyndl and I have been married so long we both forget our Anniversary day and find ourselves remembering days or weeks after..."o yeah, was it the 32nd or 33rd year?" heh. January 12 had already rolled by and we had taken no note. I can't even remember ...
