Depth


"Good work, Daria, your cube is perfect. You've really created the illusion of depth."
"I'm thinking of of going into politics."

Daria: The Complete Animated Series

"What happened to the money you were making writing papers for the college students?"
"My mom wouldn't let me keep it. She said it's wrong to encourage cheating and to make money off it."
"So is she going to quit being a lawyer?"

I was only ever able to watch a precious few episodes of Daria, but the cold wit immediately fascinated me.
:-)

Alas, no way to find her DVDs in Lebanon. Except maybe official ones at Virgin's, priced twice to 4 times as expensive as they are in the West!
Time to give emigrating some serious thought, I believe.
Besides, I just heard that there will very officially be no more videogames made for the PlayStation2, so that's the end on my $1.35/disc gaming bonanza. (Save for the umpteenth GTA San Andreas mod hack with a Van Damme or James Bond skin and new musics.)
PS3 seeems unhackable, and I'm not interested in a Wii or X-Box. Therefore, nothing more is holding me here.

Destiny is such a strange thing. What unexpected minutiae might change the course of our whole lives!
Like bumping by chance into one specific woman after you missed your reguar bus. ;-)
