"You should keep your feet on the ground so you can leap higher into the air"--Joan Miro

"When I pick up a stone, it's a stone.  When Miro picks up a stone, it's art"--a friend


    Dreamed of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address; crossing a swamp on floating wood steps; following a long line of people who were volunteering to help put on an event, through a long basement tunnel route; losing the others; a subway station for the Donlands area that was near the lakeshore (the real Donlands Station being near Danforth Avenue).


    Dinner was KFC.


    Saw the DVD of Miro:  Theatre of Dreams, a documentary about the famous Catalan surrealist.  When they made Joan Miro, they broke the mold.


    Eric Porter in The Jewel in the Crown is exactly like the villain who took on James Bond in Thunderball, with even the same eyepatch! ("The unkind say he lost his eye peeping through keyholes.")
