Bibi and Agate and I watched Bullit last night. (BULLIT!) Let me just state, for the record that Steve McQueen is magnetically compelling (while hot). Also: the GTO is a sexy, sexy car and Mr. Delorian ought be highly commended for designing it.
This movie in no way ameliorated my sincere desire to become a stunt person. Seriously, people get paid to drive like maniacs in crazy cars though the streets of San Fransisco, and I want in on the deal.
However: I write today, because I am making a book about "conventional wisdom," and I was hoping you denizins of the internet have some to share. I'm not sure what exact definition I'm operating under- things your mother told you? proverb-like? something I haven't even begun to consider?
So: Have any conventional wisdom to share? I can promise undying gratitude and your very own colophon page.
LASTLY: Have you seen this game? It is the knot untying game of awesome awesome(!) awesome(!!), and I am at level fifteen, which with my attention span is really saying something. Go forth and untangle vertices! Much like Steve McQueen, this game is strangely compelling.

Don't cry over spilled milk

Beware the ides of march
