Last night it was a shrimp ring and beer that put me to bed.

The sunset had been splendid, with major lightning storms to the left and right, a golden orange straight ahead, illuminating cloud-tops in bright orange and red as the sun went down, mystical figures of old men in flowing beards that might have been painted by a renaissance genius from days past which morphed darker and more ominous as the evening progressed.

Late at night I awoke, the night was still warm... watched a meteor make a blazing trail across the sky...

And this morning I heard on the news that Ted Kennedy died.

In a world of irrelevance something relevant has happened, something that makes the earth spin slightly differently on it's axis perhaps.

I will miss Ted Kennedy, as someone who was linked to me in a mysterious way ... perhaps best described by Kurt Vonnegut:

"like the fingers of one's hands"... working together. Ones 'Karass'.

A Bokononist would say "Busy Busy".
