It's an excellent album.Get it here: inrainbows.comIt has to be said that they are now completely out there, on the front and on their own.We should all be as brave.I suppose that's the point.Courage.

This is the latest by Los Lobos.One of the songs, 'The Valley', was featured at the end of a Sopranos episode this past season--that's what turned me on to the record.Really great music. Check it out if you can.

J. Bronowski put together a great scientific series for the BBC back in 1973 entitled The Ascent Of Man.In Part 11 of the series he discusses the quantum world and how its qualities are proof that there cannot be a final, perfect, unassailable knowledge for mankind.Bronowski presented the episode's final comments from Auschwitz. Above is an actual shot from the scene as he pulled a handful of mud

There's a great little (about 1 hour) documentary out entitled "Who The Fuck Is Jackson Pollock?" I watched it and couldn't help but be reminded that there is a line of dominance, no matter how much the virtual reality likes to express that there isn't.

This is the bomb site at Gaysorn Plaza directly across the road from Central World--formerly known as World Trade Center. I took these around 10:30am Jan 02.

Thais Throw Their . . . Fruit In The Ring?At today's meeting of the International Astronomical Union in Prague delegates from Thailand again showed the world why, to most, 'Thai', more often than not, means 'Fun!'While the vast majority of participants were engaged in boring hour-long presentations, the Thais, it seemed, had something all-together different in mind.In much the same spirit as the

Now, the mistake is not recognition, but when one decides the man's unable. Get close enough and he'll pulverise your bones to dust with a psychic wave of intense repression. Like a dream you'll shift into an angled dimension where the last thing you'll perceive is the scream of a blind turn into bus traffic.

II. Waging War3. Victory is the main object in war. If this is long delayed, weapons are blunted and morale depressed. When troops attack cities, their strength will be exhausted.4. When the army engages in protracted campaigns the resources of the state will not suffice.5. When your weapons are dulled and ardour dampened, your strength exhausted and treasure spent, neighboring rulers will take

The following comes from a study on Thai depression entitled “Symptoms of Depression in Thai Patients”. You can find the entire study here: http://www.mahidol.ac.th/mahidol/ra/rapc/sadd.html.I’ve extracted the part about guilt. I find that most of the Thai people I know belligerently lie about everything; no regard to consequence; no guilt. What follows may be an explanation, but—I want to be

So, I’ve been thinking about what it is that makes the things I like so good. Well, I mean, the music and books and things like that. Well, I mean, the people who did the stuff, I suppose. I’m thinking it’s probably because they . . . what they do is some sort of the truth about themselves; they’re speaking in a voice that is their own; shared elements to be sure, but their own in other areas.

New week here in BK-town. I got no idea what the hell's going on--sameoldsameold.A buddy of mine's getting married. The ceremony's up in Isaan, Northeastern part of the country. It's on for this Saturday, a little earlier than he . . . than he was told.Sometime back in February, my buddy and his girlfriend were up in Isaan visiting her family and taking care of the house she was having built.

Had a few JackCokes yesterday in one of the places on soi Nana, the corner of the Plaza and the soi. This girl I talk to most times I’m there came over. We started talking—well, not really. I don’t know. Let me explain. What I mean to say is that I listen, she talks. That’s how it works. I gave up talking to them a while ago; I only talk when it’s time to place my, ah-hem, order. So, she starts

I used to think I didn’t really deserve it because I was a tourist. Then, I got a job teaching and I thought, well, I don’t really deserve it here either because I am actually just a tourist who thinks he’s a resident. Then, I got a job in my field of expertise and I realized: I do receive a level of respect I’ve never had at my jobs in the US, but I tend to let the cultural misunderstandings

So, I’m askin’ myself why this is so damn funny? I mean, it’s like this time I was being chased down the road in Angeles City by this Cerebral Palsy guy asking me for money. The guy was having such a hard go at it, but I couldn’t help laughing my ass off. I was minding my own business and this guy just sort of started to chase me. It didn’t help that my buddy was encouraging the guy either. This
