The Monday Morning Memo

It's been a week and
I'm still trying to find my way
back home from China.

Give me your opinion;
is the cat behind me Genghis Khan
or a Chinese Don Quixote?


NOTE TO TIME TRAVELERS: If you're here because
you took a series of side tunnels in the July 13 rabbit hole,
please be aware that you are from the future.
This is the rabbit hole for July 6, 2009.


The BeagleSword was exponential
and the rabbit hole was about people
who found their way into song.

TRIVIA CONTRIBUTION FROM PRINCESS PENNIE:
Otis Redding died in a plane crash only 3 days after recording
Dock of the Bay, the song that would make him famous.
That's why you can't find a video of Otis singing it.

Princess Pennie's second contribution
is due to a July 4th bout with food poisoning:


Pukephoria
– after you puke,
that short window of bliss
before you start another round.
– Pennie Williams

No photo with this one.

PS – Wizard Academy has the next 2 months jam-packed with classes and workshops that will brighten your future.  Take a look at WizardAcademy.org.
Go there now. Think of it as a tiny thing with profound potential, your first
Exponential Little Bit.

Random Quote:

“If a man writes clearly enough any one can see if he fakes. If he mystifies to avoid a straight statement, which is very different from breaking so-called rules of syntax or grammar to make an effect which can be obtained in no other way, the writer takes a longer time to be known as a fake and other writers who are afflicted by the same necessity will praise him in their own defense. True mysticism should not be confused with incompetence in writing which seeks to mystify where there is no mystery but is really only the necessity to fake to cover lack of knowledge or the inability to state clearly. Mysticism implies a mystery and there are many mysteries; but incompetence is not one of them; nor is overwritten journalism made literature by the injection of a false epic quality. Remember this too: all bad writers are in love with the epic.”

- Ernest Hemingway, Death in the Afternoon, p. 54
