happy holidays

See you next year...

first snow!

(Note the grumpy pigeons:)

at last!

Finally, high fashion makes sense to me.

Last night I figured out that my current bedroom is oriented exactly like the bedroom of my childhood: aligned on an east-west axis, with my pillow in the middle of the westside wall, and the window to the north. I put this together because I awoke from a bad dream (polar bears) and, forgetting where I was, thought that I was back in my childhood room.

It seems an irony that this occurrence will probably grow more frequent as I get older.

also, are barry manilow and rod stewart gradually morphing into the same person?

Bush in 2000/2008



Clinton in 2000/2008

Both Bush and Clinton were born in the same year (1946).

I would have thought the last eight years were a breeze for Bush (he certainly didn't seem to work very hard or ever stay up past 10pm), but the toll since 2000 seems much more dramatic on him than Clinton.

I wonder if Bush sometimes looks in the mirror and thinks, "Christ, I'm morphing into Barbara."

Jesus, my God
Thy blood alone
Has power sufficient to atone
Thy blood can make me white as snow
No Jewish tipes could cleanse me so
