  So. In a last ditch attempt to save this site, which has been a very important part of my life for the past 2 years, I'm turning it semi-public. Handing over the reigns to my friends. A place for use to come together, share the "human experience". That sounds very new age and hippyish. I apologize. in pursuit of something more. i'm inviting you to write with me.
From the movie "Waking Life": Hey.......could we do that again? I know we haven't met, but, I don't wanna be an ant, ya know? I mean, it's like we go through life with our antennas bouncing off one another continuously on "ant" autopilot with nothing really human required of us. "Stop," "Go," "Walk here," "Drive there. " All action basically for survival. All communication simply to keep this ant colony buzzing along in an efficient, polite manner. "Here's your change," "Paper or plastic? ", "Credit or debit? ", "Do you want ketchup with that? " I don't want a straw. I want real human moments. I want to see you. I want you to see me.
I don't want to give that up. I don't want to be an ant. Ya know?
