Novel/book - oh yes, nothing like escaping to the Discworld, right now with Monstrous Regiment, how many books in total? Surely close to 50 by now... (including the various kids series) and more on the way. Still a nice journey!
Sidewalk cafe - nothing like a good view with a coffe, be it a home brewn espresso (sweet and strong, warm and fresh) or a mixed somewhere else. Makes the mind wander. Like this morning, was sitting looking down the valley - and noticed the fumes coming from the huge chimney. The trash-destruction. Burning it all up - to generate heat and energy. It is always going, red lights on top at night, pure white against a crisp blue sky today. Fluid, changing, moving, smoke in the air - yet still tranquil - everything turning into nothing, drifting gently away in mixing with the rest. And that sort of links on to the point of Venize (or actually sound of water, drips and waves)
Diary - a silent friend that you can talk to, or a letter to yourself at some later time. Well, this good ol'blog sometimes serves the same purpose - a reminder of thoughts and the times going by.
That leaves music and poetry...and in closing, been watching MTV Icons (not permanten info?) on Metallica - and Avril did a great rendition of Fuel. Power! Oh yeah. You could see Lars "air drumming" and wanting to jump up there on stage and join in....
"MTV Icon: Metallica MTV honored Metallica[sml pic] with performances and testimonials from Sum 41, Avril Lavigne, Korn, Rob Zombie, Limp Bizkit, Sean Penn and more."
[filling my head with the beats of: The House Jack Built - Metallica ]
...and I'm not real happy with the blogger.com way of formatting text - using "span style" for each bold or italic is rather overkill If they want to avoid the old "i" and "b" they should take a step back and use the proper "em" and "strong" since they are open for definiton by css in terms of presentation (ie red or bold, all caps or 48 pts)
