| Introduction | (It's about time I re-think this blurb)...Self-centered poetic type. When finally attending university in my 30's, I discovered poetry was pretty damned interesting. I also discovered the fascinating tale and talent of Sylvia Plath. Over a decade later her poetry and life (and Hughes') still intrigues me. (OKAY.I'll keep the above). I am a music fiend. (YES, still true) Mostly weaned on rock and classical, I discovered the beauty of opera a few years ago, starting with an obsession with Andrea Bocelli's lovely voice. So Pink Floyd to Elgar to Verdi--Leonard Cohen to Beethoven and the White Stripes--It's all good. And thank Gawd for iTunes getting rid of all those pesky cd's. Kurt Cobain was my second cousin from my Aberdeen family tree. I try to write poetry and have had a few published. And over the years since this blog was created, my photography hobby fell into obscurity via digital cameras. I lost interest in shooting pictures from that tiny metal object with a screen. |

You've got to make contact with the alien leader. How will you tell when the conversation is finished?
I suppose when the anal probe is removed...
