"Dear Dr. Brezsny: I've been told by astrologers that I'm a natural money magnet. So why am I still poor? I pray constantly to the Almighty for financial help, and twice a week I buy lottery tickets. But no luck has come my way! Please tell me whether I will win the lottery. Better yet, give me the magic winning numbers. -Gemini Who's Crazy for Green." Dear Crazy: You'll never win the lottery with your current approach. The only chance you have to generate luck of that magnitude will be if you work your ass off for the next two years to create your dream job."

"Doctor Brezsny"? Does he have a Ph.D?

Good advice, though.

I was recently lent the Nausicaa manga, all four volumes, by Anton. I'm astounded at how similar the movie and the manga are, though given that the manga artist directed the movies, I shouldn't be.

So, note to self: an artist directing his own stuff can be really, really good.
