Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Because books.

If we're talking about '70s death songs, someone has to mention "Seasons in the Sun." I think there's a law.

Done, and done. It's the benchmark, certainly.

Also, "Afternoon Delight". Well, it IS about a "little death".

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ever see the aftermath of a car accident and wonder how the hell it happened? This morning's was a front-end smashed SUV facing the correct way on the oncoming side of a divided road, a city bus stopped at its stop on my side of the road and then another SUV smashed headfirst into the bus, facing the wrong way, with no other visible smashes, except for the part where it was half inside the grill of the bus. Really can't figure out the physics of that.

Woke up very late. Forgot to make lunch last night. Don't wanna work.
