Suits me

This statue in Stratford Upon Avon sort of felt good to me.  Best break I took while in England.  I almost went to sleep there, I think.

This picture suits me.  Especially when I saw the words beside my head.  I love being reminded of who I am, even when the reminder is detrimental to the ego.

O NOBLE FOOL! A WORTHY FOOL!

I Want the Globe

Here’s your author in July at Shakespeare’s Globe in London, right before watching Henry IV, pt. 1.  Good times.

Tip for Travelers

Hey, what if I were to start blogging again here and there?  I think I’ll have the time for it for the next little while.  Stress levels are down, and creative sluices have been opened.

I’ll start with a travel tip.

If you are traveling to a big city and plan on using public transportation a lot, take hand sanitizer with you and use it often.  There are some germy subways on this planet, and one must be prepared to deal with foreign bacteria.  I’ve just come back to America with a strain of French Lung Fungus that I’m pretty sure I picked up from the Metro hand-rails.  I’m better now, but O! I wish I would have had a product that kills 99.9% of all germs, because I’ve just spent two weeks producing substances from my respiratory system I’d rather not describe.

I just hope I haven’t pulled a Cortez and brought that microscopic Parisian strangler back to all the natives in my home country.  Time will tell.  If large portions of the population of Virginia begin falling off or turning into zombies in the next couple of months, I take full responsibility.

Anyway, use hand sanitizing wipes on far away trips.  From now on, they’re the first thing I’m going to pack.
