Across the evening sky, all the birds are leaving
But how can they know it’s time for them to go?
Before the winter fire, I will still be dreaming
I have no thought of time
For who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?
Sad, deserted shore, your fickle friends are leaving
Ah, but then you know it’s time for them to go
But I will still be here, I have no thought of leaving
I do not count the time
For who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?
And I am not alone while my love is near me
I know it will be so until it’s time to go
So come the storms of winter and then the birds in spring again
I have no fear of time
For who knows how my love grows?
And who knows where the time goes?
-the late great sandy denny-
i guess i like the fall so much because it makes the spring seem so much better
maybe im a sadist… i get more pleasure knowing the i’m at the ebb rather than the peak
its related to daylight savings time, i know that
but it’s all uphill from here…. which is what i’m afraid of.
It was a refreshing August evening, the night I had sex with Carly Simon. Her album Film Noir had just bombed. I’ll admit there was a sense of desperation in the air. I was 17 and she was old enough to be my mother, hell, she was older than my mother. Her children were away at college, Dartmouth and Pepperdine, if I remember correctly. We lay under the covers and just talk for what seemed to be hours. It was very cosmic. We didn’t really know each other, but we had a connection. I can tell she was a damaged, a sore loser. I was there to make her feel like a winner. I told her she was taking my virginity, I didn’t have the heart to tell her the truth.
who are you to criticize me?
ive started to log the places i’ve been

FRAPPR!

10 Mind-Numbingly Stupid Quotes by Tom DeLay
1) “I AM the federal government.” –Tom DeLay, to the owner of Ruth’s Chris Steak House, after being told to put out his cigar because of federal government regulations banning smoking in the building, May 14, 2003
2) “So many minority youths had volunteered…that there was literally no room for patriotic folks like myself.” –Tom DeLay, explaining at the 1988 GOP convention why he and vice presidential nominee Dan Quayle did not fight in the Vietnam War
3) “Now tell me the truth boys, is this kind of fun?” –Tom Delay, to three young hurricane evacuees from New Orleans at the Astrodome in Houston, Sept. 9, 2005
4) “We’re no longer a superpower. We’re a super-duper power.” –Tom DeLay, explaining why America must topple Saddam Hussein in 2002 interview with Fox News
5) “Nothing is more important in the face of a war than cutting taxes.” –Tom DeLay, March 12, 2003
6) “Guns have little or nothing to do with juvenile violence. The causes of youth violence are working parents who put their kids into daycare, the teaching of evolution in the schools, and working mothers who take birth control pills.” –Tom DeLay, on causes of the Columbine High School massacre, 1999 (Source)
7) “A woman can take care of the family. It takes a man to provide structure. To provide stability. Not that a woman can’t provide stability, I’m not saying that… It does take a father, though.” -Tom DeLay, in a radio interview, Feb. 10, 2004
8) “I don’t believe there is a separation of church and state. I think the Constitution is very clear. The only separation is that there will not be a government church.” –Tom DeLay
9) “Emotional appeals about working families trying to get by on $4.25 an hour [the minimum wage in 1996] are hard to resist. Fortunately, such families do not exist.” –Tom DeLay, during a debate in Congress on increasing the minimum wage, April 23, 1996
10) “I am not a federal employee. I am a constitutional officer. My job is the Constitution of the United States, I am not a government employee. I am in the Constitution.” –Tom DeLay, in a CNN interview, Dec. 19, 1995
…so it must be true:
Christopher prefers job roles requiring a friendly, service-oriented approach.
Cooperative and outgoing, Christopher anticipates what people need and
provides forward thinking alternatives to solve problems. Jobs that focus on
human interests will provide the most satisfaction.
Christopher may become frustrated in job roles that allow little human
interaction and require performing routine, repetitious tasks. Christopher may
be especially frustrated in situations where creativity and teamwork are stifled.
Christopher learned early in life that people should be independent, informed
and reserved. Christopher expects people to make reliable decisions based on
facts and not popular opinion.
Christopher has a need for command and control and relies heavily on
either-or, black and white logic in making decisions. Clearly defined goals and
methods of measurement provide Christopher the focus to engage situations
and move forward. The ability to utilize personal experience and history help
Christopher develop trust.
there I hope that helps any prospective employers.

Eleanor and I exchanged looks all night long. Little did I realize that Alex Kapranos was standing behind me, maybe she was looking at him. But in my head we made a connection. When she sang: Bleak church on a cold tundra / Mountain glacier glacier glacier stream / Black stone beach and a black death bottle / Is all me and my baby’ll need, I could tell she was talking to me.
Don’t worry El, we can get together after your next tour.
P.S.: Matt, I won’t let anyone know about how much you rip off Jimmy Page.
I’m on my time with everyone
I have very bad posture
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
Distill the life that’s inside of me
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
I’m anemic royalty
Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld
So I can sigh eternally
I’m so tired I can’t sleep
I’m a liar and a thief
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
I’m anemic royalty
I’m on warm milk and laxatives
Cherry-flavored antacids
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
Distill the life that’s inside of me
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
I’m anemic royalty

I learned about this guy in a college course on the history of photography.
He pretty much escaped my mind until I found his website (while searching the woodcarver by the same name). His poor website signficantly understates his talent, but you should check out his available images at www.billowens.com and at Greg Kucera Gallery.
