New Year in KY

I had forgotten how people have accents in Kentucky. I was at the mall today, listening to the various people from "the boonies", "the sticks", "Hollers" and other rural areas. Refreshing, I dare say. Like Faust among the villagers during the Easter festival.

Speaking of which, I just read "Faust" by Goethe. Not in German, though that would be fun. After studying medicine, philosophy, theology, he still was not fulfilled. The devil promised him fulfillment if he sold his soul to him. Faust agreed, and in the end was saved from damnation only because he was still striving for a greater completion. Everything else had failed him. Interesting, eh?

Probably not.

Til next time!
