Perils everywhere
Don't do anything. No matter what you intend, there are perils. We should live forever in status quo. there are too many who depend on this. Policy and energy experts for instance. Bringing the Canadian oil via the pipeline will increase the environmental damaging supply. Diminishing dependence of Arab oil will destabilize. Scare everybody so the moment would and these minor Fausts can keep their sinecures.

Cooper Union
New York high life contagion- bought stock, built expensive building.This is a despicable decision. The best school in NYC is destroyed. It was the best because it had the best students not the best faculty. Now with tuition, will the best apply? It will not be the same. A jewel that is losing its value.

Modernity angel at the library.
Went to see La La at the circus (now at Morgan Library). Got a little lost at the entrance and climbed some stairs and got to see the Degas painting of the black angel climbing to the circus vault in a painting slashed by a vertical line. An angel with no visible face, hanging by her teeth. Seems that in her real Fernando Circus performances she was carrying a canon from these teeth??
Leaving the room, went to take the elevator and found myself in the air in the extraordinary space with glass above, below and in front of me, sparkling in the sun. For a couple of seconds I felt I was myself an angel.

Seeing thru same glasses
Everybody had an opinion on this event, along previous stereotypical and regrettable opinions:
The Chechen president thinks America is the problem.
The boys' father thinks it is a set-up (like everything else in Russia and the former...).
The NRA premier members think that if everybody had a gun in Boston, they wouldn't have had to shut the city down.
The anti immigrant strongmen think...we all know what.
As to myself...just crazy young people. What were they going to do, the brothers? aside Tolstoy, nobody likes the Chechens very much....
I also think it's an unwelcome precedent to shut completely an entire city. Like they never had stranglers roaming the streets before, Just shows how small Boston is.

protectors of democracy vs the crazies.
We had all kind of bad news. Some crazies blew up spectators at the Boston Marathon, a big explosion in Texas, some uncontrolled young prick in Korea, etc The worst seem to me the stories about those who are expected to be rational, protect us, insure democracy. We have senators voting in block against verification of firearm buyers (despite massive public opinion) and a former justice of peace who killed the prosecutor who had disbarred him.

how we live?
How do we live with loss? We create memories we can live
with. And then you lose even these memories. Is this loss loss or lose lose?

True to my fortune
Got this fortune cookie ( compliments of Genreal Tso's) -Your smile brings happiness to everyone you meet. The irony was so biting that I did not leave any tip.
Money needed
New York, the capital....The unlimited corruption....Unlimited? Without end? Without bottom? So is this an example of efficiency of democracy? where politicians are more likely to go to jail then lose an election..... Take money and carry a wire....So what about New York being the financial capital of the world? Does this corruption enhances the trust in New York? Is this a good ad for Wall Street? Why does it not use its money...to clean.... corruption.

bad manners ( and grammar)
I understand, but am insulted. Lately I am getting numerous emails, spam ads whatever -with offerings of grammar and spelling lessons. Is Google annoyed by my orthography am I using too much spell check? Are my sentences so obviously bad? Probably so.

Guilty as ....
Sustainability, concerns about climate warming are sublimations of the cultural sense of guilt.
Since culture obeys an inner erotic impulse which bids it bind mankind into a closely-knit mass, it can achieve this aim only by means of its vigilance in fomenting an everincreasing sense of guilt. That which began in relation to the father ends in relation to the community. If
civilization is an inevitable course of development from the group of the family to the group of humanity as a whole, then an intensification of the sense of guilt
Ye set our feet on this life's road,
Ye watch our guilty, erring courses,
Then leave us, bowed beneath our load,
For earth its every debt enforces.
