&lt;p&gt;URGENT: We will need a couple extras for a few hours for this funeral scene, to act as MOURNERS. We will be meeting with Mr. Michael Ortiz, CEO of Ortiz Funeral Homes. Everyone is expected to be at the address at 11am sharp. FUNERAL ATTIRE MANDATORY…ALL BLACK N MINIMAL WHITE. DARK COLORS CAN WORK ALSO. You are more than welcome to bring an unlimited amount of friends. if so, how many?&lt;br/&gt;I know that is last minute, but this is recent news. This day of shooting would normally cost up to $10,000 to shoot; considering we have a Hearse, Coffin, and access to a cemetery. We definitely can’t afford to mess this up! It is crunch time, so who’s down for it? &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Please RSVP via TBillzProductions@gmail.com&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://fdelacruz.tumblr.com/post/236187073</link><guid>http://fdelacruz.tumblr.com/post/236187073</guid><pubDate>Sat, 07 Nov 2009 14:12:00 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>"Happiness does not depend on outward things, but on the way we see them"</title><description>“Happiness does not depend on outward things, but on the way we see them”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;Leo Tolstoy (via &lt;a href="http://youth-left-behind.tumblr.com/"&gt;youth-left-behind&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://fdelacruz.tumblr.com/post/235615868</link><guid>http://fdelacruz.tumblr.com/post/235615868</guid><pubDate>Fri, 06 Nov 2009 23:20:34 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>"If you want to be happy, be"</title><description>“If you want to be happy, be”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;Tolstoy&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://fdelacruz.tumblr.com/post/235604647</link><guid>http://fdelacruz.tumblr.com/post/235604647</guid><pubDate>Fri, 06 Nov 2009 23:07:12 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>"Por el mes era de mayo,

You’re using the bible as an excuse for your own prejudices, selectively quoting the parts you happen to agree with. The old testament also states that you’re not allowed to shave your beard and that you must stone adulterers and disobedient children. It forbids wearing cloth made out of a mix of wool and linen. It states that women who have their period must not be touched for seven days. So, how many disobedient children have you stoned recently?”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://lkm.tumblr.com/post/233900855/and-i-will-strike-down-upon-thee-with-great-vengeance"&gt;LKM’s stuff&lt;/a&gt; (via &lt;a href="http://blog.davebc.com/"&gt;chartier&lt;/a&gt;) (via &lt;a href="http://www.marco.org/"&gt;marco&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Accident&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You all get out of your cars. You are alone in yours, and there are three teenagers in theirs, an older Camaro in new condition. The accident was your fault, and you walk over to tell them this.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Walking over to their car, which you have ruined, it occurs to you that if the three teenagers are angry teenagers, this encounter could be very unpleasant. You pulled into an intersection, obstructing them, and their car hit yours. They have every right to be upset, or livid, or even violence-contemplating.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As you approach, you see that their driver’s side door won’t open. The driver pushes against it, and you are reminded of scenes where drivers are stuck in submerged cars. Soon they all exit through the passenger side door and walk around the Camaro, inspecting the damage. None of them is hurt, but the car is wrecked. “Just bought this today,” the driver says. He is 18, blond, average in all ways. “Today?” you ask.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You are a bad person, you think. You also think: what a dorky car for a teenager to buy in 2005. “Yeah, today,” he says, then sighs. You tell him that you are sorry. That you are so, so sorry. That it was your fault and that you will cover all costs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You exchange insurance information, and you find yourself, minute by minute, ever more thankful that none of these teenagers has punched you, or even made a remark about your being drunk, which you are not, or being stupid, which you are, often. You become more friendly with all of them, and you realise that you are much more connected to them, particularly to the driver, than possible in perhaps any other way.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You have done him and his friends harm, in a way, and you jeopardised their health, and now you are so close you feel like you share a heart. He knows your name and you know his, and you almost killed him and, because you got so close to doing so but didn’t, you want to fall on him, weeping, because you are so lonely, so lonely always, and all contact is contact, and all contact makes us so grateful we want to cry and dance and cry and cry.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In a moment of clarity, you finally understand why boxers, who want so badly to hurt each other, can rest their heads on the shoulders of their opponents, can lean against one another like tired lovers, so thankful for a moment of peace.&lt;/p&gt;
