Shout out to William Carlos Williams

This is just to say...

I have exhausted

my patience

with the poetry

project

and again

the students

ask the same

questions

Help me

it seemed so clear

so defined

and so possible

Back from the dead

I found this and felt it greatly embodies two of my passions. One new, one old. Tattoos and Sylvia Plath.

For more of my tattooed literate brethren check this out:

Guess which of these I want next.

Defender of the Q-tips

This is what I found in my bathroom 2 days ago.

I never realized that my Q-tips needed protection, but I was wrong. So, so wrong.

So the next day this is what I found. Obviously there was some pretty intense action during the night. Thank God the Q-tips are safe.

As you can well imagine, this morning there was a new development. The encroachment of an evil so insidious. Watch out Q-tip Defender!

More details to follow I am sure.

Disclaimer: I do pick up my bathroom but I thought it was worth leaving these in place until the drama has played out.

The Root of All My Early Fears

I stumbled upon this and all the fears returned. I remembered every sinister minute of the opening of the show. I was only 2 years old when this show ran. I guess this would be my first memory.




I didn't realize the damage Sid and Marty Krofft could do. They did however redeem themselves with Land of the Lost. The most awesome show of all.





I hope you enjoyed the state of the art 1974 effects.
