1:05 AM, Wednesday morning...
In a book, an android was trying to understand why some hard-scrabble humans would name a space ship The Laughing Life. I bet I could tell him (and how melodramatic is that?) There is a lot you can laugh at in life -- problem is, hardly any of it is really funny.
Or maybe it all is.
While riding home in a car earlier tonight, "Scar Tissue" by The Red Hot Chili Peppers was playing on the radio. I thought: how pointlessly appropriate.
Hah.
