The Coyote has an Ahab-like compulsion to catch the Road Runner. It defines him. Fortunately the Coyote is a god, with immortal durability, and able to survive his many, many catastrophes.
Imagine now the Coyote, whiskers gray but genius undimmed, the whispering temptation of the Road Runner set
aside like an old addiction. Now his passion is the building: the delight in the physics of magnets and explosives, the anvil and the cannonball. The building of amazing, terrible, dangerous things for the sake of the things themselves. The Road Runner, once muse, now watches with bird inscrutability as the Coyote falls, burns, explodes and then returns not out of hunger or purpose, but for the glory of the build.

And here I just thought he had a really bad contract. |

This is so very zen. I love it for the sake of love. Love is all
there is. From the ashes rises the God. |

The strange thing is that he's still addicted. Just to
something else. |

//From the ashes rises the God.// You've obviously
never been to one of the intercalary's infamous
seafood barbecues. From the ashes rises the cod. |

Has anyone seen the series "Life" with Damian Lewis
(Homeland, Band of Brothers) in which a cop framed with
a brutal murder and imprisoned for 12 years is cleared,
returns to duty and is assigned a new partner - yes, it's
basically every cop-show ever, only the main character is
a committed zen buddist and between solving crimes he
eats fruit, talks in koans and thoroughly annoys (though
simultaneously earning the eventual respect of) his
colleges with (despite) his mystic bollocks. I've been quite
enjoying it. |

Anyway, that, reminds me a little, of this - or the other
way around. |

That sounds very interesting, [zen tom]. |

Oddly enough, Acme.com does exist, but is a very
dull site. |
