And a poem.

Boomeranxious.
Gangway ropey walls
Conduit cables
Contain a paper dispatch from the outback
Who knew this aborigine contraption
Would never reach terminal velocity
Falling like that
Boomeranging back to earth
Dreamtime falls from
The sky in pieces
An incredible light show for
Years after

Nonsense Revolution

At the Atlantic Film Festival on Sept. 18th @ 9:30.
This is a great and funny story about personal responsibility and love. Angels and hardons, parties and peeps, this movie is a must see. A great performance by Anastasia Phillips, excellent direction by Ann Verrall.

Internet Gestalt

It's an unusual sort of pornography/voyeurism to be looking up people you know on the internet.
Not with any intent necessarily. Not neccessarily.
I've just spent a half an hour looking for some indication that a story I read in a lesbian porn mag, "On Our Backs", a few years ago, was indeed written by an old girlfriend of mine. I probably didn't buy a copy at the time because I was embarrassed to be reading the magazine. Would I buy one today? Probably, and then I'd have a copy and wouldn't be wasting my time dredging through the trivia of an internet profile of someone I used to sleep with. Why do I want to know this? Instant gratification of some whim. Half an hour? Hardly instant, but then, it's good if it lasts a while, isn't it?

Boomerangs in Space

Beautiful. The sound of it.
And this is something we really need to know....
"Boomerangs Work in Space".

http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/dy/features/science/20080322TDY03107.htm

"I can't express how happy I am that a boomerang I made flew in space and came back," Togai said. "There's a possibility that gravity does not play a large role in the process of it coming back and that Doi adjusted its angle to match conditions in space. I think this will help spread the appeal of boomerangs."

Who cares if it's science, it's a beautiful use of imagination.
They don't say why. And they don't really cover the reason for the experiment with the water fleas, but there it is. Boomerangs Work in Space.
It most surely is a strange world. Strange solar system, really.
