my life as a artist
point orbit hole

Tom writes in to ask for the number of the pizza place, and tells me that he can draw, in a tone that suggests he's either hungry for pizza, or for Brenda Modigliani. If it's the pizza you're after, Tom, then I salute your enterprise and adaptability, because it's that sort of 'can do' mentality that's just got Barack Obama elected, but if it's because you want to see Brenda naked, then I'd advise caution. Knowing you to be a carnivorous atheist, with no allegiance to Huddersfield Town, I fear that you might be more susceptible to Brenda's erotic charms than I was, and I'd worry that your pencil might go wobbly.
It's all academic anyway, because I'm sad to say that when I was in town on Thursday morning, I noticed that Modigliani's had closed down. When I got home there was a note from Brenda, along with twenty-five special tomato and cheese and ordinary tomato pizzas, lined up at regular and suitable intervals in the conservatory. The note said that her and her boyfriend had to moved to Tuscany, to work at the Helena Bonham-Carter Heritage centre, and her dad had opened a sandwich bar in Derby called 'Modigliani's Sarnies'
One moment the magic validation word is 'point' and the next it's 'orbit'. Change is all around us, it seems, especially if you're a careless busker. One of the most recent dramatic changes, possibly even more dramatic than that of the validation word, is of course, the recent change of the US presidency from Bush to Obama.
On what was a proud day for all people of Irish descent, President O'bama said, 'I promise the American people change, change from hope to change to courage for change, and in a very real way, today, I believe the hope for the courage to dare to hope for change has been replaced with a real promise for hope, and I think we can draw courage from that, and, I hope, hope.'
This afternoon Huddersfield Town beat Leeds United 2-1, and as the winning goal went in, thirty seconds from time, I couldn't help but think of Brenda and her ridiculous doubting of the existence of God. The magic validation word has changed again and is now 'hole', which coming after 'point' and 'orbit', has a certain poetic drive and narrative to it.
POINT
ORBIT
HOLE
It's concise, it's elegant, it's multi-layered and inscrutable. Let's hear it for the ever-changing, magic validation word!

Howdy! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers? I'm kinda paranoid about losing everything I've worked hard on. Any recommendations?

Yesterday, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iphone and tested to see if it can survive a twenty five foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!

My developer is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs. But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using Movable-type on a number of websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform. I have heard great things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into it? Any help would be really appreciated!

The very heart of your writing whilst appearing agreeable in the beginning, did not really work well with me after some time. Somewhere throughout the paragraphs you actually were able to make me a believer but just for a very short while. I still have a problem with your jumps in logic and one would do nicely to help fill in all those gaps. In the event you actually can accomplish that, I would undoubtedly end up being impressed.

Howdy would you mind letting me know which web host you're utilizing? I've loaded your blog in 3 completely different internet browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot quicker then most. Can you recommend a good hosting provider at a fair price? Thank you, I appreciate it!

With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright violation? My blog has a lot of completely unique content I've either authored myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my authorization. Do you know any ways to help stop content from being ripped off? I'd genuinely appreciate it.

Howdy, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just curious if you get a lot of spam comments? If so how do you prevent it, any plugin or anything you can advise? I get so much lately it's driving me crazy so any assistance is very much appreciated.

I do like the way you have presented this specific difficulty and it does offer us some fodder for consideration. On the other hand, through just what I have seen, I simply just wish when the comments pack on that people continue to be on issue and don't start upon a soap box of some other news du jour. Yet, thank you for this exceptional piece and although I can not necessarily concur with this in totality, I regard the point of view.
