Consider:

"It is better to be drunk with loss and to beat the ground, than to let the deeper things gradually escape."

- I. Compton-Burnett, letter to Francis King (1969)

"Cynical realism – it is the intelligent man’s best excuse for doing nothing in an intolerable situation."

- Aldous Huxley, "Time Must Have a Stop"

Redirection

The new issue of Just Above Sunset, the parent site to this web log, went online at midnight, Pacific Time. That would be Volume 3, Number 35 for the week of Sunday, August 28, 2005. You will find there, in magazine format, many articles, some extended from what first appeared here, but many entirely new - and there are seven pages of high-resolution photographs, from Paris, from Manhattan, and five from here in Hollywood.

This week the current events items cover the previous week's events sequentially as our efforts in the Middle East spin oddly out of control, and a few key conservatives bail out, and we examine what this "flypaper theory" is all about. Things are hot, and can we "disagree sensibly" - or are we at a stalemate where no one wants news of any kind, the real change in the weather?

Features? "Our Man in London" lets us know about the real game, cricket. We examine a new religion, or one not recognized before, that has to do with the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Pat Robertson's call for the assassination of an elected foreign leader in put in a much broader context - the scientists have lost the dinosaurs. And the SUV debate rages on.

Bob Patterson is back with a rather unusual column for him, quite serious, and his book round-up of new titles you never thought you'd see.

The quotes this week? They're all about photography.
