And cleft me right down through my center
And I shouldn't say so, but I know that it was then, or never

Weekend of 10/18

2008-10-21T01:43:00.000-07:00

I found this weekend interesting. Here are several reason why...

- A Streetcar Named Desire (film) <1951> is and always will be a gorgeous play and film adaptation.

- External beauty could be paralyzing, unless you're Vivien Leigh.

- I enjoy blending two or more words, also known as portmanteau, as shown in this Lewis Carroll poem, "Jabberwocky."

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought—
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! and through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"
He chortled in his joy.

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

- Do you wait to talk or wait and listen?

- You could adapt to an environment while preserving your identity since they are not mutually exclusive.

- Beef stew at Kevin's Noodle house hit the spot while it was gloomy and cold in the Sunset.

- Jon Brion arrangements from Eternal Sunshine are good for 2 locations, 1 physical and 1 non-physical, on the road and in-between dreams, respectively.

- What was I thinking when joining 4 fantasy leagues? I think I may have drafted 12 PFs for each team. Trade? I think yes.

- Man is an island.

- My memory fails me all the time. Early Alzheimers? No. I remember small details of relatively insignificant events, but can never remember significant events.

- Sergei R. is my friend for this week. It seems YNQ on repeat never fails. Props Madlib.

- I will never find what I'm looking for, probably only for this year, perhaps.

Geographical Existentialism

2008-07-12T04:14:00.000-07:00

by Kevin Biggers

For many a novelist, personal geography can be an unwanted poetry. Suffused with lived-in details, sensorial charm, and familiar beauty, localism bears a wealth of literary attraction scented by the sensual schoolroom aphorism, “Write what you know.”

A love supreme

2008-05-10T23:40:00.000-07:00

A Love Supreme is a jazz album released by John Coltrane's quartet in 1965. It is generally considered to be among Coltrane's greatest works, as it coalesced the hard bop sensibilities of his early career with free jazz style he adopted later in his life.

Triple threat

2008-05-07T16:44:00.000-07:00

The Triangle offense, also known as the Triple-Post offense, is an offensive strategy in basketball.

The system's most important feature is the sideline triangle created between the center, who stands at the low post; the forward, at the wing, and the guard at the corner.

The team's other guard stands at the top of the key and the weak-side forward is on the weak-side high post — together forming the "two-man game".

The goal of the offense is to fill those five spots, which creates good spacing between players and allows each one to pass to four teammates.

Every pass and cut has a purpose and everything is dictated by the defense.

"I didn't know if it was going to come in my career, but to have the moment come now is special, especially to share it with the group of guys we have here," Bryant told reporters Saturday. "We talked about [how] winning this MVP is extremely special because that means I'm doing good. I'm making my teammates better, putting them in a position to win."

2008-04-18T00:59:00.000-07:00

Of the last bitter hour come like a blight
over thy spirit, and sad images
Of the stern agony, and shroud, and pall,
And breathless darkness, and the narrow house,
Make thee to shudder, and grow sick at heart;
Go forth, under the open sky, and list
To Nature's teachings, while from all around--
Earth and her waters, and the depths of air--
Comes a voice--Yet a few days, and thee
The all-beholding sun shall see no more
In all his course; nor yet in the cold ground,
Where thy pale form was laid, with many tears.
