There Will Be An Answer -
Let it Be. I can't say John Lennon or any other Beatle changed my life in a tangible way, but they sure did write and play some damned good music. So a Beatles night it is. What's your favorite album kids? Mine is Abbey Road...
I keep listening to track 08 of I'm Wide Awake It's Morning over and over again - Landlocked Blues. I highly recommend this album for sitting in a still small space and thinking until your eyes hurt. Today was productive: I went to work, made more products for Adm. Miller and the CCSG7 folks, came home, worked out, chatted online, caught up on bills, went grocery shopping, and even did a little writing.
So Mitt Romney announced his plans not to run again for Guv of Mass, further fueling rumors that he will be a presidential contender in '08. He seems harmless enough, although being Mormon will probably hurt his chances. I can't help but think it's time we had a Democrat in office, sheerly for the balance, but I'm not sure it would make any difference. The government would continue to expland, we will still have "peacekeepers" in warm and unpleasant climes, and I will still like pizza. John McCain, where are you?

See anything you like? Want to go with a bunch of indie-rockin' sailors? If you're suitable cool enough for our oh-so-emo crowd of hipsters, we'll be getting a house in Palm Springs again and are always looking for extra people to defray costs.
The picture below, by the way, is from the island of Lantau in Hong Kong. A long and dangerous bus ride awaits those who want to see the Po Lin Buddha in person, but it's well worth it. Smaller statues of Buddhist deities ring the larger statue, in various poses of praise and worship. The exhibits and temple are stunning. And you can collar the odd monk for pictures.
Sigh. I have to go buy some U2 CD's now, because I missed that bus back in the 80's. Oh childhood, what did I spend you on?
