I think about this often. What are those words, those string of words that could create the optimum situation? What are those words that no one has ever put together, that would reach through to people and induce in them religious feelings? They must exist. Those words of such profundity that they would break through the casings of society and truly spark unpredictable life within someone. They have got to exist. There must be SOMETHING I can say that would change their mind. Those magical words, what are they? They are specific to the person and the situation, and are probably impossible to foresee, but they exist. The person themselves couldn't even tell you. I couldn't tell you what they would be for me. They must exist. I think it would be a magnificent power to effectively be able to wield those words at will. Imagine you walk up to the ticket booth at a theater and ask for two tickets to see some movie, and they say it will be $19.50. But you deliver perfectly, 50 or so words that completely change this employees entire philosophy on life, and they are left perplexed by existence and admit you and your date freely. I often skip the basics of things and jump too quickly into the complex ideas, and it's not good, so that's why I offered such a shallow example as bumming off a couple of movie tickets, but you can imagine the meaningful situations. I need those words.

I have an overwhelming amount of drafts, again. I don't finish anything.

O Fortuna

velut luna

statu variabilis,

semper crescis

aut decrescis;

vita detestabilis

nunc obdurat

et tunc curat

ludo mentis aciem,

egestatem,

potestatem

dissolvit ut glaciem.

Sors immanis

et inanis,

rota tu volubilis,

status malus,

vana salus

semper dissolubilis,

obumbrata

et velata

michi quoque niteris;

nunc per ludum

dorsum nudum

fero tui sceleris.

Sors salutis

et virtutis

michi nunc contraria,

est affectus

et defectus

semper in angaria.

Hac in hora

sine mora

corde pulsum tangite;

quod per sortem

sternit fortem,

mecum omnes plangite!

O Fortune,

like the moon

you are changeable,

always waxing

or waning;

detestable life

now difficult

and then easy

deceive a sharp mind;

poverty

power

it melts them like ice.

Fate—monstrous

and empty,

you whirling wheel,

stand malevolent,

vain health

always dissolves,

shadowed

and veiled

you plague me too;

now through trickery,

my bare back

I bring to your villainy.

Fate, in health

and in virtue,

is now against me,

affection

and defeat

always enslaved.

So at this hour

without delay

pluck the vibrating string;

since Fate

strikes down the strong,

everyone weep with me!

Warriors of old

And broadened specialty.

The spear.

A whirling duality of death

And piercing precision.

Spinning upon joints and

Enveloping the master wielder

In blurred wood and nipping

Points.

Beware also

The keen bite of its iron

Appendage.

Stepping back from the situation,

He commands his spear with greater

Certainty.

Assaulting myriad targets

But never averting gaze.

The master's weaknesses list few.

However his downfall is an intimate truth.

Develop a close relationship

and penetrate his inner shell,

There you will find your stratagem

Of victory.

I was completely and utterly star struck when I was given the honor of assisting Jack Hoffman and his son park their car. If you don't know who Jack Hoffman is, that's okay because he's only 1 of 6 characters on the Discovery Channel's television show Gold Rush Alaska. I've only seen half an episode and that entire time my uncle and I were joking about how stupid these gold diggers were. But Jack is the only interesting one because of his voice, which can be heard here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSST23SGp04
