mondays...

kids are going back to school - what an exciting time for the future leaders of the world. 'inherit the ...' earth, wind, fire, ... (you fill it in). full moon coming up tonight and a beautiful carmel colored dawn here in eastern PA. not bad weather for the end of august and the two year anniversary of the Katrina debacle. not to mention all the success stories associated with the 'acquisition of Iraq'. i still wonder if anyone is talking about what was ruined or lost within the first few weeks of the 'liberation campaign' regarding contents of libraries, art, and antiquities??? in Jacob Bronowski's 'ascent of man', he regarded this location as the birthplace of civilization. mine was the 'heights' in bethlehem which morphed from a working class neighborhood for the steel company, to the location for some blast furnace, to an abandoned field, to an upcoming casino resort location. who would have thunk - and who still isn't thinking? debacle or debauchery - which shall we use for the word of the day...
enough a.m. rambling, time to paint (...with the wisdom to know the difference).
