Get well NOW!
I was talking with a friend on the bus ride home about a challenge facing my wife and I (outside of our marraige). He listened, smiled, and only had this to say: “just remember that there are a lot of people out there who are struggling as well.” I thought it was a weird response. But I actually appreciate it now, because he attempted to solve… nothing.
His statement also graceously reminded me of my small place on this large and complicated globe (something easily forgotten when we learn of a threat to our calm and controlled lives). A little context goes a long way. His comment was subtle and authentic, and as I think about it more- very rare.
A closer look at Batman’s new suit
So here’s the new poster from The Dark Knight. Absolutely shiver inducing, is it not? The poster arrives just days after Warner Brothers surprised the audience at the New York Comic Con with the debut of the third trailer (which is going to be released within 2 weeks or so).

According to this article , there are at least 112.8 million blogs, plus 72.82 million under China’s umbrella (they get counted separately; something about the Great Wall clause). That’s 185.62 million blogs in total floating around the World Wide Series of Tubes. Quite a few.
So here comes mine, millions on top of millions of blogs too late. It’s the remake of Psycho, basically (meaning totally unnecessary). And yet- I’m excited about it, and I’m glad that you found your way here.
So in honor of this mini-celebration, I’m going to post a photo that will certainly set your dial to ‘Festival.’ Shall we? 3…2….1…
