I was typing in "where can I" when I noticed what most people are looking for...

...apparently some badass kung-fu Justice delivered with a smile and a mustache.

Is graffiti art or vandalism? That word has a lot of negative connotations and it alienates people, so no, I don't like to use the word 'art' at all.

Of course, I have one aim, the grotesque. If I am not grotesque I am nothing.

Being in darkness and confusion is interesting to me. But behind it you can rise out of that and see things the way the really are. That there is some sort of truth to the whole thing, if you could just get to that point where you could see it, and live it, and feel it ... I think it is a long, long, way off. In the meantime there's suffering and darkness and confusion and absurdities, and it's people kind of going in circles. It's fantastic. It's like a strange carnival: it's a lot of fun, but it's a lot of pain.

The Song: "Unwritten" by Natasha Bedingfield

The Event: L.A. Trip

Kismet is an odd thing.  Coincidences or unconscious actions - however you want to define it - can lead to creating profound associations that last well beyond the events that spawned them.  And sometimes the associations are either unbidden or unwelcome - but they persist and insist on their own existence.  Such is my relationship with Natasha Bedingfield's hit song "Unwritten."  It's a simple little pop anthem encouraging people to seize the day and all that other "live for the moment" crap.  Ordinarily I would tune it out like so many songs from American Idol "winners" or that song about Delilah or whatever.  But due to the associations I've formed with the song, I linger a bit longer on the radio station while it plays.  Or I don't roll my eyes immediately as it's the background song for some soft-focused television commercial.  Instead I think about Los Angeles and my ex-girlfriend.

Today's word of the day is "pensive."

Via The Chive

Pensive

1. dreamily or wistfully thoughtful: a pensive mood.
2. expressing or revealing thoughtfulness, usually marked by some sadness: a pensive adagio.

It's a misperception of me that I am a wild man — I wish I still were. I'm 68 years old. The rage now is, oh, so deep it's almost comfortable. It has even approached the point where I can live with it philosophically. The world's not what I want it to be. But then no one ever said I had the right to design the world.

- Norman Mailer
