Random Thought for Today

When one sees past an illusion, they should ponder that a true master of the art of magic or deception has many layers of illusion to hide behind.

Some time ago, I started RPing and writing in a scenario called Double Star Saloon. The western setting is the brainchild of Moonmama and is a nice change from the spacer bar. Here are some related things.

FRIENDSHIPS DYING
~Author Unknown~

Friendships online are often fleeting, Made and lost without even once meeting. How many friends from online have I lost? I haven't kept count nor figured the cost. Some depart, spouting bluster and rage, Others as quietly as the turn of a page. Many return though I couldn't say when, While the rest are never heard from again. For the loss of some, the fault is my own, An unkind word spoken and I'm left alone.

Some friends turn away for no reason at all. I'm puzzled and hurt when they shun my call. Scores of friends are forever lost to me Since the systems we called ceased to be. And more than once, I've had friends die. I can't forget them; I don't even try. So take a moment during your time online And be aware, though there's no outward sign. That sound you hear, that solitary crying, Might well be the sound of friendships dying.

RICHIE: "I didn't know you believed in ghosts."
DUNCAN: "I believe in the kind you carry with you. Everyone you've loved and everyone you've killed...they never leave you. When you stop feeling and you stop hurting, that's when you're dead inside. And that, my friend, is when I'll worry about you."

DUNCAN: "Inamorata."
TESSA: "What did you say?"
DUNCAN: "Inamorata. Two lovers destined to be together forever...but forever kept apart by the gods."

CONNOR: "What are you talking about?"

DUNCAN: "No, you run like hell."

Lyrics of the Day

Queen - The Complete Words, etc.
"Who Wants to Live Forever" written by Brian May  

There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams, yet slips away from us

Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever . . . . . ?
Oh ooo oh
There's no chance for us
It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us

Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever
Ooh
Who dares to love forever
Oh oo woh, when love must die

But touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is our today

Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever
Forever is our today
Who waits forever anyway ?

Bitch-o-gram of the Day

Simple and straight forward.... "Oh, that man!!"
Ever notice how that phrase uttered with an irritated tone starts many a bitching session?

We now return you to the regularly scheduled rambling LJ entry for the day......

When a heart learns that love is a gift to be shared openly is when a heart has really experienced love. My friend, Dan, in Pittsburgh, taught me that. You can love many people in many ways. Love is not always that ass over tea kettle type nor the type you read in fairy tails.

I came up with a few story ideas. One takes place in the Lousiana. I was inspired by a combination of things and vaarious mythologies that may or may not fit.

Innamorata... as mentioned above in the Highlander quotes. A quandry for the ages and wondering what would piss off the Gods that much... Jealousy, perhaps?
