A video clip of Richard Feymann on Robert Krulwich's science blog. Don't neglect to read the excellent poem by Wislawa Szymborska below the video.
Poetry. Translations of poetry, mostly classical Chinese and Japanese. Anything else I want to write.

DI DUNIA INI, ADA BANYAK WARUNG
Apple slices
in coarse sea salt.
Sardines
in bitter chocolate.
An avocado shake.
What savor would these have
taken at a food stall
of bamboo
and blue plastic tarp
at the corner
of Jalan Kaliurang
and Jalan Yacaranda?

SORE DI MALIOBORO
SORE DI MALIOBORO
Orang-orang, banyak warna.
Abu-abu, kehujanan.
Mantel-mantel, kecil di bawa.
GRATEFUL DEAD
Message to their Creator from those suffering eternal torment in Hell: Hey thanks for the free will.

LOOKS LIKE PAUL KRUGMAN KNOWS HIS BIBLE
If I were given to trawling through the Bible to find passages that support my notions of the good and true, I might light on this bit from Genesis:
Sounds pretty Keynsian, doesn't it? Pharaoh didn't say I'll just take enough to keep me and my family in beans and rice. And you guys keep all the rest and enjoy it, cuz, hey, it's yours. How would that have worked out?
