THIS Rhett Butler Will Never Die

i have no place to be today where there is a corner that i can sit in and shut out the ugly american world around me today. it's a holiday so even though most of the working people in my corporate ugly town are not flooding my cafe at this early hour, the flamboyant touristy types are flooding the place, and there is NO corner here that i can sit in with my back to them all. i have TROUT MASK REPLICA playing loudly in my earbuds, so that casts me partly into another realm, but the visuals around me anchor me to the fact that i am NOT in Paris. ahh, Paris... will i ever meet you in person? Craig Ferguson did a wonderful week long visit to Paris with his Late Late Show last month and he took the amazing young actress Kristen Bell with him. God, what an old man's fantasy that is for me... ahem, so I've got a little bit of cash in my pocket right now, enough exactly to buy a passport. i said that already, yes? so this week i'm going to start the application process to na...

this project is a step in a new direction for me. someone that i've become acquainted with on the internet coauthored this new book with me. it contains poetry inspired by my photography written by a young woman from Minnesota that has found inspiration in my work. her name is Grace Carthey. we already have two more like-themed books in the works. (pictures are pretty to look at online but nothing is more gratifying than holding a copy of a well designed/crafted book made by a friend in your own hands. buy a copy, won't you?)
