Interesting to contrast Herzog with Annie Dillard, whose approach to nature is one of humility, wonder and awe, like "the longer I look at this, the more I realize just how brilliantly it all works together. I think I'll study it some more and see what else it can teach me". Do you suppose Herzog read a little too much Nietzsche in his formative years?
Love Your blog! These are tough times, so I have rounded up some real Christmas freebies to get you all in the Christmas spirit: (I am in Allyn,WA) Washington Son, http://washingtonson.blogspot.com
Kari - I DIED when you sent me the email. I was in a mixture of shock, horror, glee, fascination and sheer awe. GENIUS. I saw we all watch it on Saturday just to get the ball rolling... just in the spirit of the season, you know? FORNICATING AMAZONS!
I completely agree with Misha. I had to get over the horror and shock before I could get to the pure ironic nature of the video. Aren't people interesting...
