In art, one idea is as good as another. if one takes the idea of trembling, for instance, all of a sudden most art starts to tremble. michelangelo starts to tremble. el greco starts to tremble. all the impressionists start to tremble.

When it was first optioned, i was told that the chances of the basic eight becoming a film were slim because no one was making teen movies, and then later, i was told that the chances were slim because there were so many teen movies, and then i was later told that the chances were slim because teen films were over. i'm not sure when the magic window of opportunity was, but perhaps it's still on the horizon.

Crabbed age and youth cannot live together; youth is full of pleasure, age is full of care; youth like summer morn, age like winter weather; youth like summer brave, age like winter bare. youth is full sport, age's breath is short; youth is nimble, age is lame; youth is hot and bold, age is weak and cold; youth is wild, age is tame. age, i do abhor thee; youth, i do adore thee.

Summer Three Phrases
Of course, now i am too old to be much of a fisherman, and now of course i usually fish the big waters alone, although some friends think i shouldn't. like many fly fishermen in western montana where the summer days are almost arctic in length, i often do not start fishing until the cool of the evening. then in the arctic half-light of the canyon, all existence fades to a being with my soul and memories and the sounds of the big blackfoot river and a four-count rhythm and the hope that a fish will rise.
Summer Memories Thinking
Do what we can, summer will have its flies.
