1. The title of this post is a quote from James Joyce about Irish Nationalism. America has to look at itself a little bit more and ask some tough questions.
2. I think Sarah Silverman is quite attractive. She has the brains and the looks that make her quite ahem.. whatstheword... sexy. Jesus is magic is witty and at the same time gross. I wish she would spend less time talking about eating things off of her boyfriend's penis.
3. The thing I love the most about air travel, even after all these years, this the way the clouds look when looking down from the top. I love all those hills and valleys and often fantasize about running out of the plane and on the cloud top. It would have been convenient if I was made of cotton candy.
4. The oldest recording of music I have on my iPOD is a 1906 recording of Raag Bahar by Ud. Abdul Karim Khan that I got from the All India Radio archives.
5. So a certain state in the US has made it mandatory for all hospital patients to state their race so they can be "provided culturally appropriate care." I find this insulting and offensive. If I had the time and inclination, I would write to my representative. The only culturally appropriate care I expect and deserve is the best care the hospital can provide for all its patients. Is that so wrong?
6. Anyone who cannot come to terms with his life while he is alive needs one hand to ward off a little his despair over his fate... but with his other hand he can note down what he sees among the ruins. - Kafka
7. Prediction for 2008: Obama is going to self destruct with an affair or some other scandal. I can almost smell it. Hillary is pompous and self important; she will not get any grassroots dem support. But she will get nominated and Guilliani will eat the lunch out of her hand. It is bloody frustrating.
8. Are you thinking what I am thinking?
9. Current issue of Time magazine quotes a porn star, Stormy Daniels, on how high-resolution DVD format will accentuate physical imperfections. Does this elevate Stormy Daniels to a legitimate spokesperson of porn (and elevate porn to a legitimate business) or trivialize Time to what it has actually become, a terrible rag that reflects nothing but the absolute middle in all opinions? Then again, porn is a $57 billion industry worldwide ($12 in the US.) So, it stands to reason that everyone who owns a computer participates in the consumption of the industry in some way or the other.
10. I just wanted ten things for this. But I only feel like writing nine things. So this is just a bogus point just so it seems like a nice round set of well-considered observations. Shame on me!
