The Shut Down

On January 25, 2001, I finished my intro page for h2g2, and one hour after it was complete, the site went down. Now, Finally, it is back up, but my page is no longer what it once was, because off-site pictures are no longer allowed. Well, I don't know where h2g2 is headed, but the meddling better be minimal. The forum for free thought and expression may become only another over regulated, media/advertising machine. God I hope not. Anyway, Check out my site: [external link removed by moderator]

NEW INTRO

WOW. I can't believe it all works. It took me all night to build it, but it is built. I love it like a son. I am so proud of it. I want everyone to see the damn thing and yet I know that hardly anyone will, because, dammit, there are not enough people cruising the guide. No one ever replies to messages and I am sick of it.

Writing the novel

I am trying. I am trying. I am trying.
With every obstacle I face I become a person of greater depth, and so when I finally do have my novel written, it may be profound.
Or it may be just a 100,000 word piece of crap.
One can only write. And drink. One can definitely drink. One can definitely get floor-licking drunk. Sloppy even. I remember a few times I was sloppy. I was not writing much then either.

violence

We live in a world of terror. Terrorism is a war that preys on individuals, based on hate and idealism. It can come upon you at any time, the plague of terror that is running rampant over all of society. There is a sickness in our souls, and it is infecting the whole of our civilization. Violence is everywhere. Are we so unhappy that we feel the need to strike out at the innocent? Is anyone innocent?
I have never felt the urge to hurt any living thing in the wild. When in the woods, I am at peace. I do not feel any anger towards any animals. Even while hunting, I have always felt a closeness to the prey that will become a part of my body, for I would not kill for pleasure. Only for food. Yet in our day to day lives, there is so much anger that we often feel the urge to assault another human. This is a sickness that is like an infection in the collective souls of all living people, and it must be treated. It must be treated with love, and beauty, and rest. We need to stop doing, and start living. We must stop the fear, by experiencing the peace. THe earth is the cure. If we stop to experience the excellence of life, how can we think of taking it?
