Today was kind of in the swing. Not a disaster and not memorable.  Kind of on par with yesterday park run being slightly slower than my PB but still in the ball park. 

I didn't try anything special.  Just hooked into it. I think it's more a mental thing at the moment.

GOMA

We are at GOMA

On the black wall is a family tree style drawing which I take to represent black people. On the table are corner's reports and government reports. In white which is to me symbolic of the white reports into the deaths of black people. 

Phoebe took these.  She's so good at composition. 

I took this. 

This was totally weird. I'm not sure what it was trying to actually say but the message to me is its symbolic of public service waste.

To remember the 6m jews killed in WW2 by the NAZIs.  How about the 100000 Lebanese killed by Israel in 2025, 26.  I also ponder why theres such support, in Australia, for Israel to commit what I view as genocidal murder

Loved the new artwork.  I love art that you can touch.  This is fun.

Casino Viewing Deck

Phoebe met me in town after Coraggio and we walked along the river front near three customs house then across to the casino. Took the elevator to the top. Windy but a great view.

In The Grey

It's essentially a Spagetti Western with ATVs and motor bikes. Nothing grey about it.  The main character is introduced as operating in a grey area between the moral and something but she's clearly a goodie and the rich evil dude is clearly the baddie.

Like a Spagetti western there are lots of guns and galloping.  No suspense and no subtleties. Galloping steeds and all challenges are solved with things that go bang.

There are two or three recognisable characters on each side and then innumerable extras who seem to continually appear holding guns with infinite bullets. The goodies have those bullets that hit their mark and leave piles of bad dead. 

I pondered that its a very white cast the only goodie who died was also the only black guy on either side and being a goodie,  he sacrificed himself to trigger an explosion that killed dozens of baddies and gave the goodies time to escape..... until the next of the unlimited baddies appeared over the Ridge.
