In bed half the day with a migraine again. This one related to the weather. It was one of those cases where a couple of clear blue days and strong winds brought it on. It doesn't seem to matter whether it's Calgary, Sydney, Toronto, or Tokyo -- that weather pattern always gets me.

rand()m quote

In the wake of 9/11, we [in America] have made the decision as a society that we can never again create something in which we can take pride, for fear that someone will destroy it. Moreover, we must suppress any trace of individualism, lest someone have the desire to rise above the bland sameness that protects us. I have, alas, no idea how to recapture our courage.
