Happy Friday, all. I'm glad the weekend will soon be upon us. It's another cool and overcast day here and it's supposed to stay that way over the weekend for the most part. What can you do?
Here's the trailer for Canadian film maker Atom Egoyan's new movie called Adoration that has just opened. It looks good.

For Once, then, Something (by Robert Frost)
Others taunt me with having knelt at well-curbs
Always wrong to the light, so never seeing
Deeper down in the well than where the water
Gives me back in a shining surface picture
My myself in the summer heaven, godlike
Looking out of a wreath of fern and cloud puffs.
Once, when trying with chin against a well-curb,
I discerned, as I thought, beyond the picture,
Through the picture, a something white, uncertain,
Something more of the depths—and then I lost it.
Water came to rebuke the too clear water.
One drop fell from a fern, and lo, a ripple
Shook whatever it was lay there at bottom,
Blurred it, blotted it out. What was that whiteness?
Truth? A pebble of quartz? For once, then, something.

Happy Friday indeed. I'm so glad it's finally Friday. Sunshine galore here. And it's close to 100 degrees F. What does one expect in the desert?
George and I are trying to catch the new "Star Trek" movie today. Yes, every once in a while we're falling right back into the whole mainstream trap. And yes...I have to admit that I like "Star Trek."
Oh well. Live long and prosper, y'all.
We like Star Trek, too, Jim! I hope you like the new one. Brad and I going to go next Friday with his dad, I think.
Big hugs to my boyz in the desert!
