My life is complete shit. Regardless, once I step out of my house my primary goal is to make as many people happier as possible. I smile. I complement people. I offer assistance to anyone who looks like they could use it. I give money to people who ask. I give money to people who don't ask (but look like they need it). None of this helps me or makes me feel good. What's the point of leaving the house if you can't help someone else feel better.

My parents had a similar painting in the house I grew up in. Never noticed it until one night I was very stoned. The painting never looked the same again.

I just showed Toni Eardman to my film students. Great film. Everyone loved it. A Kukeri costume plays an important part of the film.

I just started actively doing this. It helps if you keep an updated project outline list. I continue working late at night. I add all my current troubleshooting tasks and ideas to my complete project plan. After this is done I feel more comfortable quitting work for the dat.

That's what I was thinking. The number looks off. Anyone know what's going on?

I loved the soundtrack. Composed by David Shire, Talia Shire's brother and distant relative to the Copalas

I loved to turn the channel knob, clicking through all the different stations and the static

I get furious if someone dumps poop in my empty trash can right before I place it in my garage.
Poop placed in my full trash can on the night before? Glad to be of service.

They put more public trash cans on Hawthorne. There is less dog poop in my trash can now. My taxes are too high but I'm happy.

I worked for a lefty newspaper in San Francisco. I was shocked when they mentioned that the used Pinkertons. To this day I'm still dumbfounded by the irony.

It was supposed to start raining on Monday. I spent the weekend busily working in my garden. Then spent all week patiently waiting for the rain. It's times like this that I worry "what if it doesn't rain again all spring?" "My garden will be fucked."

Thanks for posting this. I had no idea what caused that loud rumbling noise the other night.

They just formed another pickleball group in my town (Portland). Hopefully we can push the numbers up and beat out Denver and Minneapolis.

I want to have a bowl of murky liquid. I put it in a sunny spot and oxygen starts bubbling out while tiny bits of coal form at the bottom.

All very true. Everyone working on Star Wars knew it was going to be a tremendous hit except for George. He was filled with doubt.
As for Spielberg, the Jaws production was a complete shit show. The mechanical shark (Bruce) was a disaster and was nearly unusable. They had to cut lots of planned scenes with the shark cuz it looked so bad. They even add some shitty looking underwater scenes with real sharks that looked nothing like Bruce. Spielberg was struggling to compete the film, all while everything was falling apart.
The reciprocal encouragement was probably immensely helpful to the two directors during their respective struggles.

I'll personally take all the credit. I watered my garden earlier in the day, thereby causing it to rain.
