Influences.

Just lately I’ve taken to watching a Laurel and Hardy short every night on YouTube, and I think it’s having an effect of the progress of my life.

A few days ago I was raking some plant debris off the embankment behind my house, when I forgot where the other end of the rake was and broke a pane of glass in my kitchen window. That’s pure Laurel and Hardy, right?

What I find interesting is this: Some years ago I was in the habit of watching a Japanese horror short every night, and creepy things started happening in my house. Now that I’ve changed to Laurel and Hardy I’m breaking windows with the top end of a rake. Who says life doesn’t mirror art?
