What I have been doing lately...

A couple weeks ago my grandfather died. So Jodi and I packed up and headed to Ontario for a week for the funeral. When I got back Jeff was waiting for me at the airport, so we were able to hang out together for almost a week which was great. Last time I saw him was in Seattle last August. I have also been doing some reading...
The above book was great. The reason I read it is because it was just made into a film that won at the Sundance Film Festival. So I thought I would give it the ol' college try. It ended up working out. Here is a paragraph from the book that I thought was perfect...
'While Dad was in prison the rule had been to never see the same stud three nights. One night is forgot like a fart, two like a pang, but after three nights lain together there is a hurt, and to soothe the hurt there will be night four, and five, and nights unnumbered. The heart's in it then, spinning dreams, and torment is on the way. The heart makes dreams seem like ideas.'
I am not going to say much about Divisadero. All I will say is that if you haven't read any of Ondaatje then you are missing out on something absolutely incredible.
This is what I am currently reading. I have read it before but I love it so much I am doing it again. Virginia Woolf...nothing else to say. If you haven't read anything by her you're an idiot.
I have also been watching a lot of film...
The above film is by Apichatpong Weerasethakul. I watched it last night. Quite beautiful. Not sure exactly what was going on. But I'm okay with that.
Pictured above is Terrence Davies. I have always been interested in seeing his films. So I bought a box set of them a while ago and just got around to watching them. They are quite something. A lot of his subject matter is autobiographical which I like. You should definitely search him out if you can.

Also this...
Beach House - Teen Dream

Всем привет!

Недавно перед мной встала задача, куда деть накопишиеся [b]европоддоны[/b], или еще их называют [b]Паллеты[/b],
[b]Поддоны[/b], [b]Европаллет[/b]ы Размеры 800*1200, 1000*1200- Это [u]Тара Пром назначения[/u].
Немного предистории.
Сам я тружусь кладовщиком на складе. Нам приходит много продукции на [b]Европоддонах[/b],
товар продаем а поддоны остаются, у нас возник вопрос куда их девать.
Раньше мы их сжигали.
Потом я узнал, что за поддоны можно получить деньги.
Начал обзванивать фирмы везде были цены низкие,
потом друзья мне подсказали, что в Челябинске есть такая Фирма "[b]Уралсклад[/b]",
около 10 лет на Рынке Промышленной Тары с хорошей репутацией.
Я нашел их сайт в интернет - [url=http://www.uralsklad.ru]www.uralsklad.ru[/url] и позвонил по тел. +7(351) 233-07-14.
Буквально через час подъехал их представитель, Авто с Логотипом "[url=http://www.uralsklad.ru]Поддоны Челябинск[/url]".
Цены закупочные оказались самые высокие в г. Челябинске.
Все цивилизовано грузчики загрузили [b]Паллеты[/b] ешё и лом поддонов купили, расчитались на месте наличными.
Про другие фирмы я узнавал либо Цены низкие, либо Бракуют много, да и денег от них не дождешься.

Так что если у вас завалялись [b]европоддоны[/b], не торопитесь их выбрасывать, лучше обменяйте их на деньги.

A [url=http://www.treegrid.com/scroll-table.html]scroll table[/url] tabletable row runs horizontally in a line across a table tabletable and is normally made up of several boxes with information [url=http://www.treegrid.com/rows-table.html]rows table[/url]. When you draw a table tabletable on a piece of paper, you are creating columns and rows rowsrows. Each horizontal line of boxes is a different table tabletable row. Often, the row at the top of the [url=http://www.treegrid.com/web-grid.html]web grid[/url] is used to create headers, which tell the reader what information can be found in the boxes below it, also known as the column. For example, the first three boxes in the first row of a table tabletable in a teacher’s attendance book might read "Student's Name," "Present," and "Absent."


Table rows are commonly used in HTML to create tables and to format a web page. The HTML tag for a [url=http://www.treegrid.com/grid-data.html]grid data[/url] is . Within each row, the tag must be added for each new box the user wants to create in that row. A new table row must be created to move down to the next line [url=http://www.treegrid.com/sort-table.html]sorting table[/url] and start a set of boxes below the first. This example shows a table with three table rows and three table columns.
