EBM makes a point, Wendig with a reminder, and a handy venn diagram you’ll want to check out…
I’ve been keeping tabs on the NOAA National Hurricane Center to see how long the Gulf of Mexico would remain and a couple of days ago the map changed over to the orange felon’s renaming.
It sorta/kinda broke my heart.
A long time ago, I knew a guy who’d build sand castles which were really works of art. There was something both heart wrenching and beautiful in making such incredible art while knowing that it would all vanish when the tide came in. Then again, the tide was a part of nature and, as such, underlined our place in the universe.
I also remember one day when some asshole decided that running through the nearly finished sand castle would be entertaining and make some kind of point. It certainly did for me in that it became the point where I understood how it’s easy to tear down rather than build something beautiful.
So it does go…
