All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

If I don't make it back someone will feed my cats, right?

No? That's disheartening. Good thing it was legit.

Oh, and sometimes you close your eyes because the documentary is Koyaanisqatsi

I keep thinking I want to see this again. But it's one of those brilliant things that is very hard to watch.

I'm ignoring the maggot stuff.

Have you ever seen the documentary directed by Diane Keaton called Heaven? Very dated looking, but really interesting approach to the subject.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Did it pan out?

I did not know that Diane Keaton was in the documentary business. Huh. What was her slant?

If they're going to offer me any shows it should happen in the next 2 weeks. We'll see.

I don't know if she's done any others. Heaven was a lot of interviews of mostly random people about their thoughts on heaven, hell, God and the devil. It's been a long time since I saw it, but I think one of the things I liked about it was that she didn't give it a slant. It was more about the questions than any real statement.

Hi Everyone.

I guess I'm a little late in the game finding this site, but I'm glad I did. I sure I have a lot of catching up to do. I just wanted to introduce myself.

I'm Victor (totally hard to guess, I know). I live in Madison, WI and am a fan of way too much TV. Right now, I'm leeching off what little wifi I can grab from somewhere in the neighborhood because I just moved to a new place and have yet to get cable and internet set up.

I just wanted to say hi so I won't give y'all the full bio.

-V

Hey, Victor. Welcome. Don't forget to give the TV folder a look-see.

Welcome aboard, Victor.

Through some lucky twist of fate, I found a carton of tiny flavorful strawberries at the grocery store the other day instead of the usual ginormous bland ones. It's nice to get a reminder of good reasons to buy fresh fruit on occasion.

There have been some huge and fairly tasty ones around here recently, though my tongue is loosing its subtlety and much fruit and fruit juice just tastes like sugar bombs to me. The difference between yesterday's pineapple and the strawberries I'm about to have isn't as marked as it should be.

Welcome, Victor!

ETA: Yeah, the local farmers' markets have had amazing fruit recently.
