newspuff

this isn't really news but it was posted in the new york times yesterday. It's an essay or I guess a glimpse into this man's life. It's not really about him though it's about his son. His son is 11 and doesn't really seem to understand the world around him and his family the way you or me does. He routinely fills his day by walking back and forth in their backyard wiggling a belt to make it look like sine waves. He loves sine waves and thus loves the Ocean where some of the biggest sine waves of all exist. It's interesting to read to read about this fathers dillema of routinely ignoring his son because of how they don't understand each other. Occasionally they'll exchange blinks.
It's hear warming but also sad. I'm interested in hearing essays to come.
