ted thoughts

some really good fighting tonight, though driving stick afterwards was slightly less fun with a throbbing biceps

i must be reading too much warren ellis and garth ennis when something like dv8 seems merely quirky

if e. e. cummings lived in a world of html markup what sort of art would he create? would it look like todd klein?

reading the sheriff of nottingham, wherein a character muses that perhaps, like gaul, all men are divided in three parts. one which fights, one which works, and one which prays. i can't find any sources that interpret caesar to mean that, but it's a notion surprisingly like the minbari

lyevsha and i were talking about waveland again this evening. it was such a surreal perspective changing thing. i need to do more of that

Oh! I used to love DV8 back in the day.

as you know, those are the traditional Three Estates of medieval social/political thinking: the clergy (first estate), nobility (second estate, where "nobility"="warrior", not that effete idea of nobility that came to exist later), and the third estate, which is everyone else who has to pay taxes and work for a living.

sorry I missed the practice (again, sigh).
