bad news

It's such a relief knowing who's the father of Anna Nicole's baby. What a lifechanging relief that is for the whole world! Is the degeneration of quality news coverage an international phenomenon or is it unique to Australia? These days the news is likely to consist of tabloid stories about out of...

happy anniversary oh bloggers of the world

And so the Easter holidays comes to an end. It's been a grey rainy holiday with the exception of today wherein I spent time with Beloved while she was polishing off the last part of her assignment. As for hot cross buns I have to admit I crossed the line of my traditional adherence to the age old... Sign in to see full entry.

music as seduction

I was just tossing up whether to go to the Opera House for a performance of the St. Matthew Passion. Classical music provides me with the opportunity to momentarily surrender to the more soulful and profound scope of the christian sense of life and death's mystery in a territory that's happily...

wanting life changing seduction

Lately I've been thinking of television of all things. More specifically I've been thinking about those shows, through the years of my life, that might have had a kind of thematic influence on me. The shows that have made a lasting impression on me have been those shows that have been about... Sign in to see full entry.

an impromptu face reading in the city

This afternoon I went into the city after work. I had a quick bite to eat, wandered for a while and then was making my way back to the bus when I was stopped by a well dressed man just before I crossed the road. "Excuse me sir," he said, "but I simply must talk to you as I recognize that your face... Sign in to see full entry.

sketched words

I have to admit that I am currently enthralled by the book I'm reading. Sometimes you can go through years of life with a barely articulated instinct or sensitivity to a certain something that's just beyond the reach of words and you know that you make choices based on this mysterious something, it...
