from a room with a view.

Greetings from Florence.

the opportunity's on.

Suggested double feature: Harold & Maude, followed by Charlie Bartlett.



"well, if you want to sing out, sing out
& if you want to be free, be free.
'cause there's a million things to be,
you know that there are."

i will drink life to the lees.

'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
Push off, and sitting well in order smite
The sounding furrows; for my purpose holds
To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths
Of all the western stars, until I die.
It may be that the gulfs will wash us down;
It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles,
And see the great Achilles, whom we knew.

-- Ulysses, Alfred Tennyson

ring out the old, ring in the new.

This is going to be a spectacular year.

Get ready.
