Blow on the flame to ignite the kindling. Then put progressively bigger logs on the fire. Once you’ve got a bonfire going, it won’t go out overnight.</p> <p>This is not how it’s been done in the last twenty years. It’s been about getting a ton of logs, throwing gasoline on them and then lighting a match. But fire builders will tell you that oftentimes, this strategy doesn’t work. It’s much harder to get a log to burn than a twig. If a fire starts weak, it can be blown out. It costs a lot to construct a pile of giant logs, just to drag them into place. You’re locked into this plan, you usually only have one chance. Whereas if you start off small, you can see what develops and go where your audience leads you.</p>”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://lefsetz.com/wordpress/index.php/archives/2008/11/26/the-tribe/">Bob Lefsetz</a></em>http://blog.availabledarkness.com/post/61701857http://blog.availabledarkness.com/post/61701857Wed, 26 Nov 2008 10:44:06 -0800<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/yS38gavPhgpdelmqDNg1fNCWo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://blog.availabledarkness.com/post/61395359http://blog.availabledarkness.com/post/61395359Mon, 24 Nov 2008 16:44:47 -0800“This is a little like when that grizzly bear finally ate Timothy Treadwell: Intellectually, he always knew it was coming. He had to. His very existence was built around that conclusion. But you still can’t psychologically prepare for the bear who eats you alive, particularly if the bear wears cornrows.”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://www.avclub.com/content/feature/chuck_klosterman_reviews" target="_blank">Chuck Klosterman on</a><i><a href="http://www.avclub.com/content/feature/chuck_klosterman_reviews" target="_blank"> Chinese Democracy</a></i></em>http://blog.availabledarkness.com/post/60594645http://blog.availabledarkness.com/post/60594645Wed, 19 Nov 2008 16:10:00 -0800<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/yS38gavPhfx2hl5rRyRwkqjKo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://blog.availabledarkness.com/post/58057962http://blog.availabledarkness.com/post/58057962Tue, 04 Nov 2008 21:21:38 -0800
