skunk waddles past me
raccoon rambles up ahead

surreal thing of the moment

it is entirely possible that my tax bill for this year (2006) will be
US$750,000.

to put this in perspective, it would be exactly the same as if *you* had
a tax bill of that size ... unless you own a house, in which case i'm
actually worse off than you.

"world sexy"

(or maybe you already have them and your state controlled communications just don't let you know.)
