A Swedish daily newspaper had an article about Swedish supermodels having to find new career paths in the wake of the coronavirus. This is indeed worrying.

Oh no, the poor lambs!
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

Paraphrase:

Do you hear the lambs screaming, Clarice?
Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

Did a porch drop off of mask supplies at my friend's house and brought the dogs for the drive. Took pics and both dogs are grinning. Amazing how the simplest things are the happiest things right now.

Damn it! Now I want the Criterion Edition of that movie :(

I have the old DVD of it from the thrift shop, so I'm still keeping it because it's a good conditioned relic.

22 Swedish scientists signed a letter protesting against the lax handling of the coronavirus crisis.

Over the winter my daughter and I watched many movies together. That was one she had never seen in its entirety, only excerpts.

It's a brilliant movie. I've screened it a couple of dozen times at least but haven't seen it since it came out.

Saw a large gathering of teenagers laughing and talking on the street. Surely, friends will not infect friends. Right?

They keep coming into walmart for boredom relief!   And I want to smack the living shit out of them.
