Wim Wenders said filmmaking is the opposite of politics, which is the opposite of what Wim Wenders has said before. Is it because he's representing Germany? Germany continues to supply Israel with weapons used to exterminate Palestinians in Gaza. 

 i smell exhaust, and i feel exhaust. i think it may be me, but what does it mean. i smell incense usually and r. doe not. there's something wrong with the air, or with me.

 cool gramps. i wish i had a cool gramps like this. but this gramps is my brother! james got a cool gramps. i got a cool brother! 

 i remember walking over to mister's house and looking up to see the sandhill cranes passing and at the same moment seeing p.k. looking up. i hadn't seen p.k. in years, and have not seen him again.

 i remember we used to get high in p.k.'s basement in high school and go bonkers listening to jethro tull blasting our grey matter and jumping on the bed and each other and yelling stuff and insulting each other and getting mad and i would always bring it back with a laugh saying how's your mother?

 I'll try to write down more memories when I remember them before they're gone. Somebody might read them and somebody might have a memory of their own jogged by a tangential memory of me, who they may never know in the body. I sometimes feel I've written the same memory, but then memory changes, and then remembering becomes a search for what happened within the present. I just remembered I used to bury things, thinking they would grow magical within the soil, and those things may have been unearthed later by other diggers, or developers, they could even be landfill in the Obamachron.  No, that's absurd. There must have been many things buried though, under the ground that became the private property of the Obamachron. One would be arrested for digging in the former park now.
