Breathing

Empty-handed I go, and behold the spade is in my hands;
I walk on foot, and on the back of an ox I am riding;
When I pass over the bridge;
Lo, the water floweth not, but the bridge doth flow.
-Jenye/Fudaishi


Credo quia absurdum est.


There is no pain, no origin of pain, no stoppage of pain, and no path to the stoppage of pain.


The middle way is where there is neither middle nor two sides. When you are fettered by the objective world, you have one side; when you are disturbed in your mind, you have the other side. When neither of these exists, there is no middle part, and this is the middle way.

The Long Count

I finally picked up this hot little number from Jason Blair and Leanne Buckley.

I tried to order this through buymetoys.com - gave them the title, the author and artist names, publisher, my name and phone number. They warned me that it could take a month or two if it wasn't a "wide release."

That was a month or two ago. With any luck they'll call this week. I'll go buy it if they do get it in, but I haven't been back to that local shop since then.

Also grabbed two Slaine graphic novels of old 2000 A.D. material.

Hopefully I'm in for some good reading!
