readers complaining about the overdose of 'taken' in my recent posts will have to suffer just this once more.... just watched the last episode yesterday, with a certain feeling of ambivalence, because i wanted to see where it all led to, but didnt want the series to end.. cant blame me, it was good, and it has set a new benchmark for sci fi films to aspire to... i was looking for some stuff related to the series, and i found comments that were at both extremes, and that there were also lots of folks who felt the same as i did about the series....the good thing about it was, it didnt flood the screen with visual effects, nor did it try to make conclusions, it left you to think, and gave you some very good things to think about..... like the first of the matrix trilogy.. i have actually begun to think that all life could be part of some giant experiment, that we are all Ctrl D....lemme share some good lines from yesterday's episode

"Hope is the biggest lie, but its the best we have got, its what keeps us going...."

"life, all life, is about asking questions, knowing that you might not get the answers...it is the desire to know what lies on top of the next hill, that keeps us going... so keep questioning, even though you know you may never get the answers...."

and here's

manuscrypts trivia

the lyrics of the song that the last episode ended with, dont know if it will touch anyone the same way, but still, its a beautiful song, as many 'taken' guys would agree...its my Emmylou Harris and is called

Just before it gets dark

Just before it gets dark

When the lights still hangs in the sky

The days not quite gone

All its promises still in your eyes

Between the time your mother calls

And the time you put the ball away

There's a lifetime to be lived

And a world where every dream is here to stay

Just before the night comes

And you run back to the safety of your world

Just before it gets dark

You can believe in every story ever told

In those last precious moments

There's a beauty no one wants to give away

Well, nothing lasts forever

But those moments keep forever far away

Just before it gets dark

Before you grow

Before you're too old to pretend

Just before it gets dark

And you know your dreams will not come back again

Hold on

Hold on tight

And I promise you baby it will all be alright

I promise you baby it will all be alright
