I just now finished watching _American Beauty_ again. Your comments seem
surrealistically appropriate, and not at all worrisome. Thank you for relating
some of your family's social dynamic. It helps to put things in perspective.
It's been raining in Shasta county since yesterday... so, as I stare out the
window at the snow birds on their feeders... and as the technological
singularity pays its high rent over in sand valley... all is well... and
zenarchy prevails.
Stay hungry,
