This afternoon, the first newspaper we produced in my term as Editor in Chief was rated the best weekly tabloid in the nation. We transformed the tabloid into a monthly magazine over the summer, and our inaugural issue was rated 3rd best feature magazine in the nation. And this came on the heels of a damn Pacemaker for '12-'13! Joey, Christine, Julie and Randy: working with you guys has been inspiring and enlightening. I love you all. And to all the Spinnaker staff responsible for bringing a Pacemaker back to our campus, none of us were really aware of it, but apparently we're pretty fucking good. (at New Orleans ACP Conference)

Too much heart for one barroom, and not enough for the recognition of the swaths of costumed ingrates out on the the streets. Regardless, they've won hearts, and posthumously gratified.

+ An impromptu gathering of minds caught wind on the banks of the Jacksonville Riviera this afternoon.

While strolling the banks I overheard then walked into Me&fuzzyBlack's deliberation over a certain blog post. The half of the duo who goes by “Me" spoke on behalf of Fuzzy Black in what has become their uniform method of address.

"Fuzzy Black and I have taken a particular fancy to the general principle of this space captured momentarily in a time now past—a thing that surely doesn’t, and cannot, precisely exist now as it did then.

"For purposes of securing the multitude of territories still yet to be manifested as any individual’s thought; Fuzzy Black and I will be stealing (whichever euphemism you choose to use, it is still stealing) the circle-coffee-stains-sinking’n’fadeing-into-space principle."

The point being raised by Me&fuzzyBlack is of a developing trend in the inventive person's cognition -- proprietary thoughts, actions and results seal off the last frontier of our environment in which we still have hope to discover a truly original human action; these original happenings will appear mundanely alike to past happenings, but will nonetheless have minuscule differences and therefore be essentially different. Thus, it is original, and this never-before-moment should not be bound up in any-one-person’s pocket—recognized as ~his~ by the particular arrangement of elements which can always be boiled down to: ‘Put this public object here, and put that series of words there.’

Me&fuzzyBlack—by this point drowsed from waxing on about the “thought crime" inherent in trademarks and patents— did not wish to apologize for reposting something, and promised to continue the original content.

The group of two, lulled by the wind, fell to sleep on the Riviera’s edge, dwelling with the last of "their" words. ++

Where in the world is our apocalypse?

The People’s Apocalypse

As 2012 — and supposedly life as we know it — comes to a close, we should carefully consider our options of catastrophes and apocalyptic prophecies, and invest our fear accordingly.

The currently trending doomsday prophecy has a lot going for it: it’s loosely based on the “calculations” of a mysterious and ancient civilization; it’s the source of inspiration for a few major motion pictures; it has made its way into our popular culture and has a solid buzz-factor. The Dec. 21, 2012 Doomsday -- what we’ll call DD12 -- has the sort of mystique to which we’re all drawn, but will it be a fulfilling investment of our young adult angst? DD12 is derived from misconstrued.... --- Excerpted from the UNF Spinnaker. To read more, visit:

Excerpt

He carried a couple too-small red snapper with cut-bellies and soppy guts on a plastic bag and an open hand. A machete hung by fishing-wire hobbled from the wrist of the other. He was young and black, was short and thin. He darted his eyes too much.

The Ascent

excerpt sandwich (photo sets=bread)

Each of her strides led a foot down flat scooping backwards into the dirt. The nubs of her thin shoes clawed through to hard-packed soil. The straight back and upheld chest; the loose hands circling forward and petting the air; the legs winding from her hips, gliding her feet low over the ground, were that of a runner. The weight of her rolled off the toes and down the path. Her nose pulled in each weightless moment and her lips did not part.

She had learned to build fires that left embers to begin again from in the mornings. She would recline the seats and sleep in her hatchback-wagon. She’d come to the forest to sweat her faces off and scream at the scrubland, drawing from where cunctation and longing collected as thin layers of tar, threatening to fill the recesses and close the open spaces that allowed her to breath. She would run. Trying to distinguish the noise and pace and promise of the city from her own, she would breathe.
