I watched the american president debate on youtube with sound off. I like to read body language. Obama looks more at ease when facing McCain. Why? Is McCain racist? Some people say he is. Or just shy and uncomfortable?

It's not about the memories but about the physical thing we forget to take with us when we pack. It's interesting to keep a list of what we forget, pyjamas, tooth-brush, shirts etc It's useful for last minute-check to go one more time through list of things forgotten in past. Is anyone else who like to share similar passion and curiosity? Which thing do you forget to take and how to deal with it? (read more)

I was thinking of creating a book lending business in airports for travelers on long flights. Instead of buying the book in the airport bookshop the passenger can borrow it only for the course of the flight by having the credit card charged full retail price of the book. Upon arriving in the destination airport the passenger returns the book and gets full refund in their credit card. The book can then only be re-lent to passengers traveling back to the country airport the book originally came from. (read more)

Imagine that all of us are icebergs floating on the sea of enlightenment. As an iceberg, you look down into the sea of enlightenment and know that you want to be a part of it. Then you discover that you too are made of water, except that you are frozen. You're just like the sea. The only difference is the temperature.

What prompted me to this question was thinking about authors whose books are fiction and auto-psychoanalytical. The themes are always personal obsessions they have which urge them to write about them. The work is never auto-biographical. They write esoteric fiction that reads as very real. They write compulsively, locked in their private space for hours. I wonder if these authors went through therapy and talked about their obsessions whether they might lose the urge to write about them. I'm thinking that if therapy won't diminish an author's urge to write, how it might affect his choice of themes and literary style going forward.
