Today is World AIDS Day, and I am filled with rage.

And I am filled with grief.

And I am filled with confusion.

And I am filled with emptiness.

I do not believe in divine forces.

BUT is it not curious that, at any given season of any given year, we have just the right number of Skarsgårds in our lives?

Surely, any more and their magic would dilute.

We start the sixth month next week, and he's been remarkable. I'll definitely be continuing on. My body is the strongest it's ever been, and I feel less prone to injury with every week that passes.

By the way, I'm pretty sure my trainer could do this:

At the café, and this man and woman at my table are talking, and...wow he is so godamn condescending. I don't know anything about their story, but his tone toward is enough to make me hate him with the fire of a burning star.

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: Learning from Stoppard By Mike Fitzgerald, June 13, 2016 Comparing two drafts of a script can be hugely instructive, revealing point-by-point how a writer went about improving the story. When I stumbled upon an earlier draft of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, I discovered a dazzling, glittering trove of lessons as nourishing as eternal life itself. Well, nearly so. Last Crusade was written by Jeffrey Boam, from a story by George Lucas and Menno Meyjes. So say the opening credits. Boam’s final draft, dated March 1, 1988 (ten weeks before production) differs drastically from the published script which reflects the released version of the film. Differences come as no shock, but with Last Crusade they aren’t just a few deleted scenes and some line changes. Whole sections of the Boam draft were reimagined, major set pieces were added, and the pacing and tone were markedly transformed. Whoever made these changes possessed a profound grasp of story craft.

Nine years ago Mike Fitzgerald wrote up an extraordinarily fascinating breakdown of the differences between the Tom Stoppard shooting script and the original Jeffrey Boam draft of Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade.

I love how this naturally leads to discussion about Fear and Hope being two sides of the same psychological coin. (One always - yes always - carries the other on its back.)
