Happy New Year « C. A. Casey

Quotations

"I think about where the food came from and the amount of work necessary to grow the food, transport it, prepare and cook it and bring it to the table." -- The Buddha, Five Contemplations When Eating

"Man resembles no carnivorous animal." -- Percy Shelley, A Vindication of Natural Diet

"Therefore, vegetarians should have that moral basis—that a man was not born a carnivorous animal, but born to live on the fruits and herbs that the earth grows." -- Mahatma Ghandi, Diet and Diet Reform

"The repugnance to animal food is not the effect of experience, but is an instinct." -- Henry David Thoreau, Waldon

"It has long been a belief that odors have a curious effect on morals . . ." -- L.S.M. Curtin, Healing Herbs of the Upper Rio Grande

"How far is anyone justified, be he an authority or a layman, in expressing or trying to express in terms of music (in sounds, if you like) the value of anything, material, moral, intellectual, or spiritual, which is usually expressed in terms other than music? How far afield can music go and keep honest as well as reasonable or artistic?" -- Charles Ives, Essays Before a Sonata

Happy New Year

Posted by Casey on January 1, 2008

I’ve been playing hooky from the blog. Sometimes it’s nice to get away from the computer, since I’m on it for work and for play. I have two big December events to post and I’m working on them now. Let’s just say, they involve lots of photos.

Here’s a photo I took December 22, from the back of an SUV, on a gazillion lane freeway, heading south to Palo Alto. I saw the shot, grabbed my camera, and prayed that the photos wouldn’t be too blurry because I was shaking all over the place from trying to keep the zoom lens steady in the moving car.

Yep, that’s the Golden Gate Bridge . . .

Yeah. Right. You kept asking “Did you get it?” “Did you get it?” as we sped along.
