Talk with folks who’ve studied World War II, for example, and you can spend all night going back and forth about what would have happened if the French had simply sent troops to […]
The two streets weren’t completely disconnected from each other. Once in awhile, there will be rich mortals who will go to Overlooking Immortals street to buy some elixirs. Even though they couldn’t cultivate, they could still consume the elixirs to strengthen their bodies and prolong their lifespan. Overlooking Immortals street is Qing city’s most prosperous […]
Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius [Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus; 26 April 121 – 17 March 180] believed that the barbarian groups beyond the Rhine and the Danube had been allowed too much freedom of action while three of the regional legions had been fighting in the east. Indeed, both archaeological evidence and the scant literary sources […]
“There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man’s fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is […]

I witness his foolery As the crowd cheers the insanity He delivers with finesse on stage They see the images he creates Being a part of the audience I’m unconvinced I see escapism in his efforts To rise above the dearth of reality Every movement oozes talent As raw as his red spirit His courage […]
Seoul (CNN)Forced to kneel and assaulted for forgetting to buy ginger. Kicked and spat on for being late. Drenched with water for driving too slowly.
