Personal:

On a pilgrimage of sorts...

    By Jack Grant

...I made sure I visited this place when I was in London:

221B


If I had to name the single largest influence on my life, this would be it. Don't know what I'm referring to? The clues are all here:

By Jove Watson you've gone and done it again!
Jack, next time you are in London will you get some pictures of the Grand Lodge of England. I am a Mason and always wanted to visit there, but never had the chance during my visits.

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.
