| Bio: | Mal: "Ain't all buttons and charts, little albatross. Know what the first rule of flying is? Well I s'pose you do, since you already know what I'm 'bout to say." River: "I do. But I like to hear you say it." Mal: "Love. Can know all the math in the 'verse but take a boat in the air that you don't love? She'll shake you off just as sure as a turn in the worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she oughtta fall down...tell you she's hurtin' 'fore she keens...makes her a home." I've been rambling between the 'verses for quite some time. I'm always searching, hoping to find some clues about living true on the frontier between the Dominant Paradigm and the Contraries. In the spirit of adventure, Cap'n Fox looks for enlightenment, sifting through the everyday experiences of life, through art, magic, spirituality, metaphysics and culture for hidden truths and surprises. I'm a reader, an essayist, a student of the multiverse. I like to share what I find. My traveling companions on the journey down the interstitial highway are my wife, the lovely and talented Ms A, and my children the Princelings, Prince Bear and Princess Sparky. I'm a Vermonter caught in dreary old Ohio, but one day, one day... In the meantime, here's a toast to the journey, and a disclaimer for those who can't figure it out reading the journal. My chromosome pair? 46,XY. The breakdown of particulars and facts can be found here. I'm relearning how to be a creative writer. Maybe someday, I'll learn how to be an author. There are many good authors on my flist. As I learn, I'l be posting snips on this journal. If you want to read them in serial form and in an organized fashion, you'll find them at I LOVERMONT!!! Here's my take on wanting to become pagan clergy. "It is a small world. You do not have to live in it particularly long to learn that for yourself. There is a theory that, in the whole world, there are only five hundred real people (the cast, as it were; all the rest of the people in the world, the theory suggests, are extras) and what is more, they all know each other. And it's true, or true as far as it goes. In reality the world is made of thousands upon thousands of groups of about five hundred people, all of whom will spend their lives bumping into each other, trying to avoid each other, and discovering each other in the same unlikely teashop in Vancouver." -Neil Gaiman I Love Roots Music. Uncle Earl are my g'Earls! Some comments from the wonderful people on my flist: " " " " "Some of the most amazingly lyric LJ entries out there. They are open and honest and poetic, and always a joy to read." - Here's a kenning by Brother mine, matched steps on the roads, mingled grip in the heart. You are sweet Oxygen for the Midlands and the Hearthstones' Dream of well-tending. Cousin of apples, kin of ash and hickory, called Jack's Foil- holding Hope steadfast, with feet planted, gaze sharp. Inspiration kneads songs in your kitchen, drops hints (grey-green threads to braid) in corners. Her Flame tresses tangle 'round your pen. Mo dearthair, Old soul with a young heart, Freedom's perpetual champion, carrying wonder in your crane bag. Always e- Xtraordinary, a visionary with earth and seed cupped close. Rory: Serendipity has never been a friend to us. Lorelai: Ah, yes, but I talked to Serendipity on the phone last night. She feels bad about how she's treated us in the past. We had a nice chat. It's all going to be different now. -The Road Trip to Harvard We follow Callahan's Law in this LJ (also known as the Law of Conservation of Pain and Joy): "Shared pain is lessened; shared joy, increased — thus do we refute entropy." (All credit to the Spider...) My Inara mood theme is by the lovely
