LINES OF THE DAY

". . . But the past does not exist independently from the present. Indeed, the past is only past because there is a present, just as I can point to something over there only because I am here. But nothing is inherently over there or here. In that sense, the past has no content. The past -- or more accurately, pastness -- is a position. Thus, in no way can we identify the past as past." p. 15

". . . But we may want to keep in mind that deeds and words are not as distinguishable as often we presume. History does not belong only to its narrators, professional or amateur. While some of us debate what history is or was, others take it into their own hands." p. 153

Longmire season 3

There is going to be a season three.  Longmire was renewed, though evidnetly not until after the last episode aired.

This is good news -- unless they continue season two's trajectory of making Vic become a sex object and girl object in peril, instead of the strong, competent and professional she was in season one.

Don't Do This!

Keep Doing This!
