Cats, Toast and the Vengeful House Imp
It was a clear, cool autumnal morning, when the neighbourhood cats became obsessed with my toast. Not just slightly interested. Not just sniffing curiously at the edges. Obsessed - in a full-on Stephen King / Steve Buscemi eyes / psychopathic stalker kind of a way. It was disturbing, freaky, not to mention downright abnormal behaviour for a creature of the feline persuasion. I've never seen cats act this way before. Marmosets, dingoes and aardvarks, yes, but never cats. Let me tell you what happened¦

Whatever the eye beholds.
Whatever the eye Beholds The difference between you and I is something that only you and I notice. To others, we have two eyes, two arms and two legs and function in a similar bio-mechanical fashion. In Shakespeare's classic. " The Merchant of Venice," we have the classic soliloquy "Have we not two eyes, two legs?" etc.

sept 9, 05
I've been staying at my Mom's house in Ashland, OR. I've accepted a job at a university in Thailand that starts at the beginning of November. I passed up a job in Korea that payed three times as much with approximately the same cost of living. I did so because the Thailand job has fewer hours and is located in a very small city surrounded by Buddhist temples. I hope to use my free time to continue my study of the world.
