Black Book
Tonight there are things I wish I could share, but I don't have what I need. I don't have the heart or the technology. Who would understand anyway. Even if your eyes had seen what I've seen. Even if I could put those things here. Even if you'd been by my side. You would not have had the same experience I had. Because none of us are starting at the same baseline. So when I look back, when I see the evidence preserved. When my emotions rise and I think "I wish I could share these things", I now realise it would be a false hope, a hope that I could replicate in your heart, what is in mine. So I will stop sighing for a scanner, so I could share the dark corners with you all, for the dark corners would merely be absorbed.

I have a couple scanners lying around, but if memory serves me, you're on a Mac and might not find them useful. Alas, my intentions were good. (By the way, what's your screen resolution? It always comes up 'unknown'.)
Well in a display of ignorance I'm going to admit I'm not quite sure I understand the question. As far as I can tell my screen resolution is 1440 x 900, is that what you were wanting to know (not sure how it's relevant)? I think it's a little early in the morning for me still.... only 9am. The other problem with your scanners would be the continent they're on:) I'm thinking I might try and raid my parentals!
it would be interesting to know what percentage of the human experience is completely ineffable, were such an investigation possible
In some ways all of it and none of it is... Everything is unique in the way we experience it, and yet to quote someone greater then I "there is nothing new under the sun... all is weariness".
