Good Drama Should Sandpaper The Mind.

A Handwritten, Personal Letter Has Become A Genuine Modern-day Luxury, Like A Child's Pony Ride.

Ours Was The Togetherness Generation. We Equated Togetherness With Salvation, And Expected So Much From It That It Was Bound To Let Us Down. Companionship, Security, Lifelong Physical And Spiritual And Emotional Warmth - All Were To Be Had For The Twist Of A Ring And The Breathing Of A Vow. And To Be Had No Other Way.

The Rich Plankton Of Pop Heroes And Pop Villains On Which We Americans Are Accustomed To Feed, The Daily Media Soup Of Sports Figures, Ax Murderers, Politicians, And Rock Singers, The Ever-running River Of Celebs, Heavies, And Oddballs That We Use To Spice Up Our Own Relatively Humdrum Lives Has Of Late Become A Very Watery Gruel. Where Have All The Good Guys And Bad Guys Gone? Why Does Everyone Out There Look So Gray?

Mind And Body Are Not To Be Taken Lightly. Their Connection Is Intimate And Mysterious, And Better Mapped By Poets Than Pornographers.
