Light Green Dog
With a title like "light green dog" you are probably expecting this story to be about a light green dog. or maybe a light, green dog.
but no, my friend, this story is about a light green, dog.
I was walking to a nearby restaurant for lunch when i passed a rather impatient motorist. He wanted to turn left at the intersection, but the car in front of him was not moving. So the impatient motorist honked his horn and exclaimed, "Light green, dog!"
In Cold Blood
I'm about two-hunny pages into Truman Capote's In Cold Blood, and it's tough to put down. It reads like a fictional murder mystery novel (which, of course, is redundant since novels, by definition, are fiction).
And i think that's the weird thing for me. every once in a while, it dawns on me that it was actual people killed and not characters in a book. sort of weirds me out, to tell you the truth.
i guess that's it for now.

I just finished "The Five People You Meet in Heaven." (Mitch Albom) It took about two hours to read and it was excellent. I don't necessarily agree with his vision of Heaven (if it is his vision), but it was an interesting insight. One of the characters says something along the lines of one of the gifts God can give is to explain why certain things happened in your life. I don't remember the exact quote.
At any rate, I'm now reading Toni Morrison's "Beloved." I think it must have been a movie...she won a Pulitzer...maybe Danny Glover was in it. But I could be thinking of Roots, which would be a terrible confusion.
