Thirty diamonds, birds of fire, sparkle like the summer sky

My poem "The Firework-Makers" is now online at Lone Star Stories, along with fabulous pieces by seajules, papersky, and zhai.

I also got back my first three rolls of film, so expect photographs (if not yet from graduation) soon. To my surprise, I like how most of them came out!

Expect also at least some thoughts about Leslie Howard's Pimpernel Smith (1941)—if nothing else, why is it not available from Criterion?

I can easily come up with one hundred movies I'd rather have seen them release than, say, Armageddon...

Armageddon?!

Oh, dear.

Betcha no other Criterion release has as one of its second-disc features "Michael Bay's gag reel".

Though I must say, "gag" was my reaction to that movie.
