DEXTER MORGAN IS BACK. I can sleep now...
|
|
He'll charm fellow officers with a doughnut, while away on Sunday with his girlfriend Rita, or chop up a victim and package their body parts in plastic bags.
Hiding beneath the mundane exterior and contrived façade of Dexter, a charming blood spatter expert for the Miami Police Department, is an obsession with meting his own twisted brand of justice: stalking and murdering the guilty. |

Just Waiting
|
How is one to live a moral and compassionate existence when one is fully aware of the blood, the horror inherent in life, when one finds darkness not only in one's culture but within oneself? If there is a stage at which an individual life becomes truly adult, it must be when one grasps the irony in its unfolding and accepts responsibility for a life lived in the midst of such paradox. One must live in the middle of contradiction, because if all contradiction were eliminated at once life would collapse. There are simply no answers to some of the great pressing questions. You continue to live them out, making your life a worthy expression of leaning into the light. BARRY LOPEZ |

Freedom is not merely the opportunity to do as one pleases; neither is it merely the opportunity to choose between set alternatives. Freedom is, first of all, the chance to formulate the available choices, to argue over them -- and then, the opportunity to choose. C. W. MILLS |

If we value independence, if we are disturbed by the growing conformity of knowledge, of values, of attitudes, which our present system induces, then we may wish to set up conditions of learning which make for uniqueness, for self-direction, and for self-initiated learning. CARL ROGERS |

“Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves” ~Carl Jung
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.” Theodore Roosevelt |

One foot on the floor
That's how I felt this summer, ready to bolt after that quickie. I'm not gonna say it was bad, and Im not gonna say it was that good ether, it just was. I know I have said this before on my blog, many times before, so here it is, again. I really need to stop drinking, my health, my blood, is sopping with booze. Pool is up, its down, its forward but at least Im not moving backwards. It is safe to say, I do not need a cigarette. I do not have any regrets, Im starting to catch up with time, thank goodness it is not the other way around right now. These last couple of months have been something else. I am going to write what I always write when ever I feel I have given it my best shot, I am so glad I am standing on my end of the meadow; even though I still wish I had better teeth. Im lucky, I know it. My rational lately has been better then my emotional-reaction, Im fortunate, karma or wisdome? |

It’s true what they say, time moves faster when you’re older. You can always tell a person’s character by the way they treat people they really don’t care about. I saw a tournament; I’ll write stuff about it later. People are amazing, they never stop growing. The last week has been very enlightening. Karma, ketchup, straight-pool has awoken me to my weaknesses. It’s amazing, I have always known that straight pool is the mother game but not like the way I saw it this past weekend. Steve Lipsky is the man, Thor is thunder god, my mother’s are women, this man, is the product of women. I have a whole new perspective on the realm of pool and billiards, its wonderful. |
