Wait, what? That keeps things from boiling over? I'll have to try it out. Never knew.

(sorry for the #tangent)

La case du jour !

24 Juillet,
Tangent Comics: Tales of the Green Lantern (1998),
De James Robinson, J.H. Williams III, Mick Gray, Lee Loughridge et Dave Lanphear.

L'univers Tangent était un univers alternatif de DC, où les auteurs avaient carte blanche pour altérer les personnages.
Ici, le rôle de Green Lantern avait un rôle de cryptkeeper des contes de la crypte et etait une femme.

Since I currently can’t allow myself to post more pictures from the holidays in Sifnos, I want to, loud and clear, advice anyone interested in ambient electronic music to check out Tangent and their album Evolutionary Cycles. It’s damn good!

#Stoned ramblings...

This brings back memories of going to an #OKC Dodgers games (oh wait they were the redhawks back then). We picked one player to heckle and we kept saying the most ridiculous things to him and it really started to get under his skin.

Part of me feels guilty about this today, another part get grandiose, wondering the hecklee made it to the majors and maybe he now credits his awesomeness to some really ridiculous hecklers in Oklahoma who convinced him he needed to get out of the minor leagues and into the majors asap. In which case, that means I may have had a significant role in a major league player having a big league career. Ok, that is a fanciful possibility. It is much more likely that I was a jerk of a heckler, who is now wanting to rationalize the exquisite beauty of yelling the most outrageous, yet slightly poetic insult to an absolute stranger.

Baseball is weird.

Rita was the last Linden girl to enter the kitchen, having just slipped into the house through her bedroom window. Ivy was crying again, and Nicki was on another tangent about “those damned Mordecai boys”—
“And where the hell have you been?” Kit demanded.
Rita stuttered—losing her virginity to Nate Mordecai was not good breakfast conversation.

This was a hell of a #tangent. Mr Stone had been speaking for what felt like days, flowing from topic to topic like a glacial river, the syllabus a distant memory. Foliage was beginning to reclaim the desks and whiteboard. The children were dusty skeletons.

"That seems a #tangent-ial route, look at the #map; easier if we go this way..."

"Where it says Valles Lacertus Esuriens?"

"Yep."

"That means #Starved #Saurian Valley. You'll get us eaten by a dinosaur."

"Oh."

"Yes, Oh. Let's go the long way."

Josh had never tried changa. But his new mate was cool so he took the pipe.

Reality unravelled like threads. Pulled along at a #tangent to the world he knew, he arrived before a giant peacock - its feather-eyes trained on him.

A voice boomed: "Josh, your fly's undone!"

A cautionary story about the time I drank gin
Memories, a bit spotty, can't really give all the facts
I go off at a tangent, lose my thread, grin and laugh.

Faced with each of these prompts, I couldn't come up with a decent haiku for either. My solution, at last? Combining them:

You're writing haiku?
Then don't go off on tangents.
Syllables are sparse.

Sine, cosine, #tangent, I was never good at Trigonometry or Algebra. If you want to know the truth, it all sounds like gobbledygook! My brain revolts at math terms but will admit a circle will never fit into a square. Descartes said "I think therefore I am," but not in this case

Each #evening I'm accustomed to feeling quite #bereft. No emotions remain after a day spent submerged in the milieu of my parents' social mixers and events designed to win someone's hand on my behalf.

Tonight is different. There was a boy, you see, and there has never been a boy. The brother of one of my potential brides. I have never seen such animated socializing. Mother called it a #tangent, though I was quite enthralled.

If I express interest in his sister I may see him again.

Lying prone in the brush, Curtains watched as the airships ceased orbiting the capital & peeled off on a #tangent out to sea.
"Get them up," he murmurred to Roughneck.
"On your feet!" bellowed Roughneck.
"Take Courage & circle around back. In twenty minutes, I will take Spite to the front gate. Once they're distracted, hit them from behind."
Roughneck saluted and, leading his team, began to circle the country estate.
Curtains cracked his neck after two days of inactivity.
"Finally!"

A tangent's #Tangent.
The branch of a branch
Neurons fire, lighting a fire in my brain
Consumed, for a moment, with the keenest interest
Then gone
And on
To the next connection
The next distraction
And gone
And on
And on

Who is it that travels thus?

Whose journey tantalises with the possibility of human contact yet denies it, passing close by at a #tangent that never quite allows a connection?

A rogue, unbound by rules?
A stray, lost and uncertain?
A comet, outrageously ostentatious?

How then shall I be known?

Until such time as we pass once more... adieu.
