General:

Neighbors...

    By Jack Grant

The Drama Queen is discovering the joys of sharing walls (and plumbing) with your neighbors. I'm rediscovering here in France how much I love having my own house where I can feel free to turn up the surround sound and watch an action movie with wall shaking, thundering volume. I can't do that here, because even if I don't speak French, there are some things which need NO translation.

I'm sure there are some things that make up for the lack of surround sound freedom Jack. Although like me you may decide they're not worth it ;). Have some good coffee for me, please?! :)

Random Fate - latest posts

We don't handle randomness well.
   -Dr. Lucy Jones


Trying to hold the center in not so quiet desperation while the left and the right do their damnest to tear everything apart.

What Others Say
An American transplanted to France for the moment, Jack is sometimes conservative, sometimes liberal, and almost always right.
   -Pennywit

Jack has an impressive knowledge of history, politics, and Keanu Reeves. When it comes to pirates, Jack is waaay sexier than that pansy Dread Pirate Roberts. Oh, wait--I'm thinking of Jack Sparrow...
   -Jennifer (Jennifer's History and Stuff)

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
   -William Butler Yeats, January 1919


Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
   -Dandemis

Wahabism Delenda Est
Wahabism must be destroyed.
