Here is my newest iPod playlist. I labeled it Melancholia. I listen to it when it's dark outside and I'm feeling philosophical.

So Nice (Summer Samba) - Bebel Gilberto
An Ocean Apart - Julie Delpy
A Waltz for a Night - Julie Delpy
Just in Time - Nina Simone
Sweet Jane - Cowboy Junkies
Blue Moon - The Mavericks
La Mer - Charles Trenet
Lazy Boy - Brazzaville
Blue - The Jayhawks
Since I Don't Have You - Guns N' Roses
Various ramblings and thoughts that lunge themselves into my field of consciousness.

Flying Nuns
I was walking down Calle General Manso in Cornella de Llobregat, Spain when as if on some pre-arranged signal not available to foreigners all these midget sized nuns dressed in black with the weird turned-up flying-nun Sally Field style hoods came flooding out of doorways from both sides of the street. I was an American Sears Tower among a flock of four-foot tall hooded Catalan Sisters. They were on their way to a Mardi Gras Parade and they weren't really nuns but kids playing the part of the good ole Catholic days of King Philip's Spain.

Dinner for Eight
I've been asked this question before and I always find it interesting to consider. The question asks who would you like to invite to a formal dinner to your house. Formal dinners in this case means that you can invite seven people to your dinner of eight (which includes yourself). You can invite anyone from history or the present day. There are some people I would like to see just to see what they were like in person...but I may not really want them in my house. My list as of now would include in no particular order (and all guys so as not to upset my wife...this is a guys night out) includes...
1.) Jesus Christ
2.) Rory Stewart
3.) Barack Obama
4.) John Muir (pictured left)
5.) Jack Kerouac
6.) Cornel West
7.) Socrates

Speaking uprightly
They hate the one who rebukes in the gate, And they abhor the one who speaks uprightly.
