Swine Flu Camus



“Everybody knows that pestilences have a way of recurring in the world; yet somehow we find it hard to believe in ones that crash down on our heads from a blue sky.” --The Plague

Maurice Jarre's Epic Run



Composer of some of the most known movie music died in Los Angeles at age 84. Best known for film scores such as Lawrence of Arabia and Dr. Zhivago, but his haunting and epic music for Is Paris Burning? and Grand Prix remain my favorites.

A green metal Lotus racer I played with on a rug for hours...falling asleep as a partisan liberating the grand city, whose name at the time, I didn't even know.
