I've been sick for two weeks now, but I think I'm actually going to live - if I can just get rid of this awful headache. I think it's the weather - thunderstorms today.

Thanks for the emails and comments on my tirade yesterday. I guess I didn't explain my feelings so well (may have been all the drugs coursing through my veins) -- I'm fine with what I'm doing - and I have no intention of shutting myself off from the world - I was just saying if I don't start seeing something new and exciting (versus the rehashed / repackaged / copied crap we've been seeing for the last several years) - I'm going to lose it... (okay - that's an exaggeration - maybe I'll just stomp my feet)...

I'd like to see some original ideas - raw, in your face, down-and-dirty story telling with images. Not the glitzy, over-processed, over-saturated, over-lighted (lit?) stuff I see everywhere these days... That's just me - that's how I see the world. I'm probably all wet... but consider the gauntlet thrown :-)
