Michael Fanghella Seeking $150,000 Job
Not normal women, Visduh. These women groom themselves for the Fanghellas of the world and if they can bag one as "wealthy" and obsessive as him, it is the equivalent of finding the Holy Grail. They are most certainly not victims. http://ak.buy.com/db_assets/large_images/991/4020… Otherwise, I agree with your sociopath diagnosis.— April 24, 2010 6:11 p.m.

Two poems by Nicanor Parra
SD, I have to hand it to you. You do get people thinking. "And you, who are reading my ode: you’ve used it against your own solitude. We’ve never met, and yet it’s your hands that wrote these lines, with mine." Brash indeed.— April 22, 2010 6:53 p.m.
Someone's Gotta Do It
This is really interesting. While riding my bike with a friend today, we went down the OB bike path and to the Rose Canyon bike path. She wondered aloud why the homeless could not be recruited to do some weed clearing and clean up of the area, since they frequent these areas for living arrangements during the spring and summer months (due to the closure of the winter facility downtown). I thought it was a great idea. These guys have never bothered me all the years I have traveled these paths. It's horrible to read that they could be arrested for trying to contribute to society. Because, like it or not, they are a big part of society. Why do we continue to treat homelessness as a crime? This really pisses me off. Every single one of us is a "there but for the grace of god" case, and to not just deny someone but threaten them with arrest, regardless of how you view their personal status, a job as BAD as picking up human feces to keep them in their place is a disgrace to humanity that I cannot put into further words.— April 22, 2010 6:45 p.m.
Two poems by Nicanor Parra
Of solitude: it’s a lie. Seeds don’t live singly underneath the soil: it takes hordes of them to insure the deep harmony of our lives, and water is but the transparent mother of invisible submarine choirs. Perhaps an Ode to Communism and its philosophy? I don't know, I'm no scholar but what I took away from this was that Neruba viewed solitude as a selfish endeavor and that one man cannot stand alone without his fellow "seeds". And because his exile was not a matter of choice (self-imposed) he viewed solitude as not his friend, but his enemy, or as something that does not deserve to be given its own name.— April 22, 2010 9:35 a.m.
