Sylvia Plath, Anne Sexton, Henry Miller.....if they'd lived in the age of blogging and email? What would it be like? If they had emailed instead of writing letters? They (the letters) wouldn't have been the same. Typing on a computer is not the same as writing at a desk.

Her diary....so painful to read. So hard to view the pain of others. Oh.....that ..........

listening to the trainspotting soundtrack. Ten years ago before leaving for London I listened to this non stop. It's very haunting.....kind of scratches at you.


My mother still sends and receives letters. Henry Miller was rock and roll before it happened....and punk....sexist and offensive at times but I still relate to much of his work.



I read in the Wall St Journal today about lactose intolerance....how many Asians suffer from it.......
something about evolution of various traits like blue eyes (which are fairly new) and ......smaller jaws, wisdom teeth, metabolism......

then I took some scrap paper and on the back of a page was an article about lactose intolerance. So I learned about that today. What is the significance of this?

Also, on a lighter note, there was an article about Snoop Dogg being banned from the UK for an argument he and his posse had with the authorities at the airport. He was referenced by his real name and the written reason for his detention was the use of "insulting words." Just what were they?




Biggest hope? biggest fear?
