Favorite Quote:
Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try Again. Fail again. Fail better -Samuel Beckett.
Don't be seduced into thinking that that which does not make a profit is without value -Arthur Miller.


The green van approaches
Driving stealthily up our lane
The black dog runs behind
Like a greyhound in the track
He stops and waits a moment
His head down; searching
And at last finding
The envelope addressed
To this old house of reckless love anew
Leaving once more, a fresh sense of
Expectation.

I love line 9, "To this old house of reckless love anew".  It has a beautiful ring to it.  I just love it.
