Add another body to the pile.
Only one this time.
Among several sleeping dreams today was one I still remember this morning.
I was in a room with other people.
A woman with a handgun was terrorizing us.
She fired a round into an appendage of one of the other people.
She was speaking out and saying a lot of stuff but I can't recall that I ever heard what she was saying while in the sleeping dream.
Then I was lying on a sofa in that same room.
The gunshot person was bleeding nearby.
On the other side, the woman with the handgun was leaning over the back of the sofa and still talking away but I couldn't hear her words in my sleeping dream.
She was leaning over the sofa and above me as I was lying there and then suddenly she dropped the handgun into the sofa cushions next to me.
I took the handgun and pointed it at her and after I pulled the trigger I could clearly see that the bullet I fired entered her head in the orbital socket just above her right eye.
She was clearly dead. We were all relieved she wasn't terrorizing us anymore. There was some concern still in my mind during my sleeping dream that she was truly dead. But that's where the sleeping dream ends.

The typical United States American is childish and naive. Your feeble, dim-wit mind always thinks that movies, especially action, are always about *somebody*. Americans, in their pathetic lives, are incapable of seeing through the messenger to the message.

The Passage
Earlier I had made some notes about you readers and your naivete and your childish view of storytelling.

Nineteen Eighty-Four
Part II, Chapter 9
written by George Orwell, year 1949
He had still, he reflected, not learned the ultimate secret. He understood HOW; he did not understand WHY. Chapter I, like Chapter III, had not actually told him anything that he did not know, it had merely systematized the knowledge that he possessed already. But after reading it he knew better than before that he was not mad. Being in a minority, even a minority of one, did not make you mad. There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad.
He fell asleep murmuring 'Sanity is not statistical,' with the feeling that this remark contained in it a profound wisdom.

Original Airdate: 29 Dec, 1966
MCCOY: Captain, are you beaming down?
[Kirk's quarters]
KIRK: I hadn't planned to, Bones. Why?
[Glade]
MCCOY: Well, either our scouting probes and detectors are malfunctioning, and all us scouts careless and beauty-intoxicated, or I must report myself unfit for duty.
[Kirk's quarters]
KIRK: Explain.
[Glade]
MCCOY: On this supposedly uninhabited planet, I just saw a large rabbit
[Kirk's quarters]
MCCOY: Pull a gold watch from his vest and claim that he was late.
KIRK: That's pretty good. I got one for you. The rabbit was followed by a little blonde girl, right?
[Glade]
MCCOY: As a matter of fact, yes.
[Kirk's quarters]
MCCOY: And they disappeared through a hole in a hedge.
KIRK: All right, Doctor, I'll take your report under consideration. Captain out. That's a McCoy pill, with a little mystery sugar-coating. He wants to get me down there. I'm afraid I won't swallow it.
SPOCK: Very well, Captain. Something I did come to discuss.
KIRK: Yes, Mister Spock, what is it?
SPOCK: I picked this up from Doctor McCoy's log. We have a crewmember aboard who's showing signs of stress and fatigue. Reaction time down nine to twelve percent, associational reading norm minus three.
KIRK: That's much too low a rating.

First campsite, where I was going to sit, get drunk, and then go jump off the bridge. I wanted to find some place off the road where I could sit for a while, where no one would bother me. The first night, I built a fire, and I could see another fire way off in the distance, I wondered if it was someone tracking me, that was their campfire. I spent several nights here, kept thinking the next day would be better, I really did not want to end it all, just couldn't see any other options, no one was talking to me.

Right north of where the road crosses a big creek, is a point where it crosses a little creek. There are some unofficial campgrounds around the little creek bridge where I sleep in my Jeep a couple nights. I left a tent there too, it was too little to sleep in. Up the road to the north is an offroad to the right that goes up the mountain where I stayed for a while, but I'm having trouble locating it on the map. I really want to go back up there when I am free again from this chaos.

I think this is the junction of the road that went to the right that leads up to the mountain top I was at. I'm guessing it was about 2000 feet from the top down to the river, it sure looked like a straight drop all the way down.

This might be it. Steel River is listed on there too. I remember on one of the first days I was up there, a helicopter flew near me. I figured it was probably a camera crew out to get some B-roll footage of the High Steel Bridge that they could use after they found my corpse in the river.

Exchange With Reporters in London, United Kingdom
July 15, 1991
The President. Well, I was just asking what the press interest was in. And tonight at our dinner, the Secretary, having covered Yugoslavia and a lot of other issues at the Foreign Minister level -- we talked about the Iraq situation and we talked mainly about conventional arms control or how the various participants in the G - 7 could show their keen interest in arms control. We didn't go into the details of START or anything of that nature.
So, those were the subjects at our dinner. And, Jim, you were into several other subjects -- Yugoslavia -- --
from my private journal as Kerry Burgess: July 21, 2006
I am certainly glad that The Kerry Show: Expedition To Pioneer Square has gone off the air. 10 months of that madhouse was more than enough, thank you very much. This new series, The Kerry Show: Back To The Shoreline, is much improved, Now With 10% More Privacy!, but I would sure rather have my own place. And it is hot in here too, but it is nothing like the misery I would be experiencing down at Pioneer Square.

Maybe tomorrow.
Nothing today. Maybe I'll hear something tomorrow.
Epic poetry agrees with Tragedy in so far as it is an imitation in verse of characters of a higher type. They differ, in that Epic poetry admits but one kind of metre, and is narrative in form. They differ, again, in their length: for Tragedy endeavours, as far as possible, to confine itself to a single revolution of the sun, or but slightly to exceed this limit; whereas the Epic action has no limits of time.
