  2. Gittes,

    I am in my office to set a few things in motion before driving my daughter to her violin lesson.

    Valiant Machine & Tool laid off 100 of approx. 600 employees on Friday. The company has entered the "death spiral". A crash & burn for the corp. is mere months away.

  3. Gittes,

    I watched the film, "Big Fan" the other night.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Fan

    It was a positively chilling look into the life of a deeply troubled middle-aged American man. Family disfunction has never been displayed to greater effect than in this film.

    When the pain from your final exams subsides, you must watch the film, "Big Fan".

    I am "jonesing" badly for your blog links.

    jonesing - to have a strong need, desire, or craving for something.

  7. Gittes,

    Do you need to pay some "reactivation" fee to continue your blog work?

    I'll cover your costs.

  8. Gittes,

    I hope that you are deeply involved in some physical and mental healing at this time.

    You were overdue for a major recharge (psychic and otherwise).

    Please continue to grow and develop, through literature, film, and exercise.

    a concerned,

    claudio
