Grass Roots The grass was greener where you watered it, now I have reconsidered: It IS greener in Norway.In fact, this infinite landscape has such lush and hearty grass, it is good enough to eat.The sod and grass turf roofs symbolize the Norsk love of nature; sustainable and  energy efficient, the old has become the new. “When we get out of the glass bottle of our ego and when we escape like the squirrels in the cage of our personality and get into the forest again, we shall shiver with cold and fright. But things will happen to us so that we don’t know ourselves. Cool, unlying life will rush in.” – D. H. Lawrence High on this mountain,the clouds down below, Im feeling so strong and alive.

I n one yEAR and out the other. ..I am back to that place with the Germanic umlat called Warnemünde.That place is so clean and friendly. When the money faucet is running, everyone drinks from the fire hose.Here with Truddie this time. “Our battered suitcases were piled on the sidewalk again; we had longer ways to go. But no matter, the road is life.” – Jack Kerouac What you’ve done becomes the judge of what you’re going to do – especially in other people’s minds.

Now I have a lot of watches and I don't know the time of day sometimes  because my analog eyes sees a digital world. This photo, for instance, was taken with film, now there's digital. Before there were point-and-shoot picture takers, now there are picture builders. With photoshop to tweak this and that, the older I get, the better my past gets...and the better my photos. Growing old isn't optional, growing up is---I look and feel younger than my years, This  error in chronology is  a misplacing of persons, events, objects, and customs. The only thing I can do, as Allan Watts points out: You must go out of your mind everyday in order to come to your senses. After all, a fool who persists in his folly eventually becomes wise.

Being born in America is like being kidnapped and sold into slavery. Being born again in Stockholm, is same same only different....taking hostages is so pre September 11th. I have known a great many troubles in my life, most of which never happened. I still have some gamble in me!some sympathy for the devil... Afterall, as Nietzsche says, be careful when casting out your devil  'lest you cast out the best thing about you...Nevertheless Devil and the deep blue sea behind me, Vanish in the air, you will never find me. I will turn your face to alabaster, when you find your servant is your master -Sting, Syncronicity About A Year ago in Stockholm Forget about the Suicidal winters and the reputation for the safest cars on earth. SAAB and Volvo can take a back seat. Stockholm has bike paths everywhere. It's easy to get around the islands that make up the city.
