As one year turns into the next, and we hope against hope that the future is not filled with the eternal return of the same, we think about those who've passed.

In this episode, on the verge of Halloween, we look at high school football, invisibility, government secrets and our tendency to play tricks on each other.

And may I direct your attention once again to The Membrane Episode #2 wherein I explore last year's Day of the Dead as observed at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery.  The annual event is coming up again in just a few days (10/28/06), and if you can get there I highly recommend that you attend.

There was an extra week between episodes due to an escape to the beaches of my boyhood, and from there I have brought back the requisite ruminations, as well as a penchant for profuse alliteration.

While it's interesting to hear folks talk about where they're from, there's something alluring in their recollections of when they're from.  When we recall the times we grew up in, we find that a fondness emerges, an unconscious affection spills out of our memory, a fondness not just for the times gone by, but also for the people we used to be way back when.

People Of The Earth... Pronouncements are the theme of the day as we examine what the people on this planet need to hear.  Once again I explore the trailing edge of wisdom's wing and get my foot caught in my ear.  Also again, I'm as sorry as I can be about that.

It's the epicurean episode.  There's talk of great gobs of gorgeous food, savory juices and sweet succulent desserts.  You'll smile, you'll drool, and you'll have to force yourself to not go directly to the grocery store after listening to folks talk about the exquisite act of eating.
