- Funny I should stumble on this. I hope to do my own "into the wild" soon enough.

- While in Seattle, staying with my younger brother Danny this past weekend, I noted a book he had on his desk entitled "Into The Wild". On the cover sat a young twenty-something guy atop a bus with a wilderness backdrop and I instantly became intrigued. My interest grew as I read the synopsis on the back cover. I cracked open the pages and began to read. Last night, I watched the film adaption of the book and I was captivated from beginning to end. Now I must admit, my purpose in watching the film was to feed the sleeping adventurer within. How better, than to become engaged in a story of a man-boy who sacrifices his material ties in an effort to find himself in the wilds of the Alaskan frontier. However, what I discovered was an unexpected "coming of age" tale which spoke to the deepest folds within my heart about betrayal, chaos, maturity, morality, ethics, dreams, spirituality, and ultimately, the necessity of forgiveness. My friends, such an intricate and profound series of messages assailed me and spun sticky webbing amongst my thoughts that, even as the credits rolled, I could not summon my eyes away from the screen. I am almost entirely incapable of small talk. Now, please do not misinterpret that statement to infer that I consider myself intellectually sound, for nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, the past couple weeks have made apparent to me a lack of depth and discernment that I believed I possessed. A rather humbling revelation, I might add. But, I am not good at "shooting the shit", as they say... talking about the weather... discussing the current price of tea in some foreign Asian land. I recommend "Into the Wild" because "happiness is only real if shared"...

- From the page: "Two years he walks the earth. No phone, no pool, no pets, no cigarettes. Ultimate freedom. An extremist. An aesthetic voyager whose home is the road. Escaped from Atlanta. Thou shalt not return, 'cause "the West is the best." And now after two rambling years comes the final and greatest adventure. The climactic battle to kill the false being within and victoriously conclude the spiritual pilgrimage. Ten days and nights of freight trains and hitchhiking bring him to the Great White North. No longer to be poisoned by civilization he flees, and walks alone upon the land to become lost in the wild. - Alexander Supertramp May 1992 "

- şimdi kitabın da filmin de basarısı bir yana, ki evet başarılı buluyoruz aferim süper vesaire de, beni hakikaten darlıyor artık bu cekip gitme, kendini dogaya verme, sunni hayatımızın gerceklerini anla(yama)ma/sorgulama/reddetme, toplumdan ve ona olan göbek bagımızdan kurtulma fikri üzerine kurulu, bekletilerden ve "bekleyenlerden" kaçış ile herşeyi geride bırakış arasındaki ince çizgide yürüyen sonuçsuz ya da benzer sonlu, niyeyse derinlerde bir yerde hali hazırda cevabını bildigim soruları daha iyi ya da daha kötü bir anlatımla ama gene de aynı soruları tekrar tekrar soran , ergen nihilizmi kıvamından öteye gitmeyen gecmiş yıllarımı hatırlatan hikayeler, kahramanları ve türevleri... evet bu cümleyi de bir daha kuramam.. =) her neyse.. bir güç takıntısıdır, güçlü görünme/olma/hissetme kaygısıdır gidiyor.. gene aynı şey bunda da... konuş konuş nereye kadar? bense (en azından şu ara) seviyorum "bu" hayatı otuyla bokuyla... benim olan hayatı yani.. artık ne kadarsa, o kadar.. hani sor(gulay)anınız olursa autonomymi die peşinen cevap.. ha benden beklenenler ölesiye darlamıyor mu arası sıra, darlıyor.. sonra dönüp bakınca ne kadarını onlar ne kadarını ben bekliyorum birbirine karışmıyor mu, karışıyor... şimdi ben bunca zaman sonra yeniden düşünmeye başlasam bunları n'olur? elim ayagıma dolanır, hareket edemem yine.. kırkayaga sormuslar: ilk önce hangi ayagını atıyorsun diye.. yürümeyi unutmuş zavallım... öyle işte.. "do thinking" is the new black bebegim..=) yaşa gitsin.

- So Sean Penn is doing the movie version of "Into the Wild," a book by Jon Krakauer which I hear is fantastic. The book, not the movie. Eddie Vedder is doing the music. I noticed in an interview for Entertainment Weekly that when Vedder was asked if he'd seen the footage, he said: "Sean very casually showed up at the house a couple days later -- at my door, as if he lived down the street and just walked down -- and we watched it together. It was beautiful, and I wept, and it was tremendous." But in an article in Time Magazine, Vedder said: "That was all stuff I did not-to-picture. In a way--like the music for the scene on the mountaintop--I don't think I would have done that [if I had seen the footage]." Get the story straight, Eddie. Sean plans to ride this gravy train all the way to the Oscars, and he won't put up with some long-haired rock n roll star standing in his way.
