Hello all!<BR>
<BR>
I have been working on my poetry in the last weeks and the greatest thing happened to me. Last week I opened my mail and found that my poem "fallin" has been selected in a poetry contest for the semi-final! I was so proud as I saw that this message of love was selected under 10.000 other creative works!!!!<BR>
I just wanted to say, keep on working!!! We’ll here have a lot of creativity and power!<BR>
<BR>
Thank you to the Blender's who supported me and encourages me to continue writing!<BR>

Hey...<BR>
how did my name disappear on that last post?<BR>
<BR>
mark...<BR>
just a quick thought about an "ontological" (I am assuming you were not referring to cancer) approach to my writing.  I am fundamentally juxtaposed to having that "nature of being" outlook.  I am wound tighter than a snare drum. My personality feeds off my ability (desire and obsession, maybe) to pick apart the slightest of details.  If I were to commune in unity with my surroundings, it would implicate me in a sense of tranquility that I am not sure I could deal with.  Some can harness the powers of "chill" at will - I, sadly, operate at a higher frequency.  I see the nature of being, for me, as a frenetic and surreal dissection of all that is around me.<BR>

Take care and all that good stuff<BR>

I have seen your webpage - so if that is a good example of your work, I am sure will be in a job shortly.  Good Luck with cohabitation.<BR>
<BR>
Wow, I just re-read my post to you, Mark, this morning and it made little sense to me (and made me laugh).  What was I thinking?  The thought process is true, but my vocab sounds way too structured.  Oh, well.  Thanks for the reminder about The Drexel.  I haven't been to Columbus in a while - I could take a trip this weekend.  Do you live Columbus?  Maybe we could meet up and terrorize some old ladies!<BR>
<BR>
You are a friendly sort, aren't you? I got a kick out of that Love, Mark signature.  If I didn't know better, I would think that you are funnin me, son.<BR>

Just a sad FYI...<BR>
Those of you into movies: Ted Demme died today of a heart attack.  He was playing basketball in a charity game and died shortly after being ambulanced to the hospital.  He is probably most famous for directing the movie Blow.<BR>
<BR>
38 years old...how scary is that?<BR>

That is sad. I was just discussing Demme last night with my husband, coincidentally. We were talking about "Silence of the Lambs," which I hate and my husband loves, and he told me that Demme directed that as well as "Blow." I saw "Blow" for the first time last week and was impressed. It reminded me of "Boogie Nights" but it's sadder 'cause it's based on a true story. I'm very sorry to hear that...

P.S. I wasn't sure about Demme directing "Silence of the Lambs" so I just looked on the back of the box. Jonathan Demme directed it. That's what I thought. Bye.
