I'm kind of glad the web is sort of totally anarchic. That's fine with me.

There's nothing like impending death to rouse you from existential boredom.

In my reviews, I feel it's good to make it clear that I'm not proposing objective truth, but subjective reactions; a review should reflect the immediate experience.
