    Once, A wise man once told me "Time is not an Empirical Concept". An equally wise woman showed me the way of NXVR. The importance of Free Information in a Free Society. Free Consciousness alterations via submersion into unrestricted media phantasmagoria distributed by various networks under the sea and fueled by the kindness of neighbors, creatures of the deep and other tentacled mind flayers. A phantasm of a perfect utopian world of 1s and 0s. I wonder where I would be without Phillipinas. Do good work, stay well, and keep in touch.

    GLASS CASTLES AND BLOODY CHAMBERS I liked the excellent post on Angela Carter in your blog, Klassy. The use and abuse of fairy tales in modern fiction is of some interest to me. I have studied archetypes of the fairy-tale princess, the female storyteller and the old hag in relation to the 1001 nights, European folk tales and their adaptation in feminist literature. So, I am more than a little tickled with this review of The Bloody Chamber. I wonder if you, Klassy, are also familiar with A.S. Byatt´s short stories? I believe that especially the collections "Elementals" and "The Djinn in the Nightingale's Eye" might be of interest to you, although fairy tale retellings and the remodelling of ancient motifs pervade all of her work. To me she is an almost natural consequence of Angela Carter. Anyway, to answer your initial question of that post, if I could read one book again for the first time, it would be Women in Love by D.H. Lawrence. But more on that later. Thanks for the good blog.

    Stumbler: Klassy Description: Beyond description. Inimitable. Authentic. Human. In a word: Makahibang Website: She has several but this is the best Pictures: Sometimes. When they are, they carry the weight of the review. Main themes: in media res Like Best: Movie reviews and Foreign Films. Liked Least: So little of her here lately Best Quote: I remember the night I stopped praying. How the evening eye turned back into a lonely moon. The feeling has resurfaced lately. Of foolishness for some of my beliefs when they have not been rewarding. Of resignation, of abandon, of an ultimatum. Faith is so strange. I am already beginning a new year, which for me has already been surprising, lovely and yet turbulent. I remember last year's plate was always full with painful, traumatic events that will take years to process. Still I didn't completely forget that last year's plate also offered me desserts sweeter for their brevity and jaw-dropping happenstance. People and places just change you, simple as that. Letting go of beliefs can also mean freedom, a change of focus & course. To sever the dry branch that squanders a tree's resources. This will be the year I will say I do. This will be the year I do. And I do. With all my heart and body and mind and soul, and every willing part of me, I do. Some favorites: Favorite Untranslatable Words On Rumi Uncomfortable movie plot summaries Saddest moment Story of her life Asking Alice Why We Travel Meanings of things I bet you say that to all the boys Nature of reality What she used to think about love And now
