Last night at fish & chips joint waiting to pick up an order, ask a former coworker how she's doing. "not well with the state of the world." I'm thinking Libya; she thinking earthquake. Go home & watch the beginnings of March Madness. After, read Saramago's The Stone Raft. The Iberian peninsula sails into the Atlantic. Four characters ponder the why, follow a dog on a pilgrimage through the floating land. Nuclear plant melting down near Sendai. Libyan mercenaries shooting civilians in the streets. Young Isaiah Thomas crosses over, breaks Momo's ankles. The shrimp & slaw is tasty. Drink some wine, watch the world quake.The woman who draws the unerasable line in the dirt makes love with the school teacher who's followed by a flock of a thousand starlings. Thomas hits a trey with 30 secs left, 1 point game. 6.9 aftershock. 4 point game. All of Europe declares they are Iberians. A three. one point game. 14 seconds. 900 people buried under mud. Another trey. Tied game. Another tsnami? Overtime.
