Personal:

A day of ill omen?

    By Jack Grant

October 24

Not only my birthday, but United Nations Day, and even more ominously, Black Thursday, the beginning of the Great Depression.

Something to think about....

Happy late birthday. (I'm overlooking the entire Black Thursday ref. *grin*)

That would be the curse of all of that trivia swimming around in your head. : D !

Hope you had a happy one. (...and let the record show that I DID get the wishes out early on my page.)

Happy birthday, and here's something slightly.

Turns out that you, Bat One and I are ALL Scorpios. A bit freakish, no?

We don't handle randomness well.

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.

Wahabism Delenda Est
Wahabism must be destroyed.
