And A Blinding Light Did Shine...

Guess what kids, I'm back.

Wait wait... don't run!
Heh, anyways - hey everyone. I'm pleased to say that I managed the week without thinking of the computer or the internet at all... perhaps two weeks will press me more but I'll have to see. Anyhow I had a great time in Morocco - it's a really great country and it's a shame I couldn't stay longer. I will say one thing though - they sure know how to haggle (sp?)! Still it was a great time although I'm glad to be back and trying to get to grips with reality once more. Glad to see everyone seems ok around here, I didn't doubt you guys for a second ;)

Anyhow... it's 00:34am, I need sleep. Goodnight all!

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

And the people did see and out of fear they did run, into the grasslands and into the hills, never to be seen again

Can I just ask where this blinding light shone from? Why do you get blinding lights all of a sudden just for being you?

I hope that the light didn't come out of your --*
