Hello cowgirl in the sand
Is this place at your command
Can I stay here for a while
Can I see your sweet sweet smile
Old enough now to change your name
When so many love you is it the same?
It's the woman in you that makes you want to play this game.
Neil Young: from Cowgirl In The Sand (1969)

Cut ruby gemstone with inclusions: photo by Humanfeather, 6 June 2009
Hello ruby in the dust
Has your band begun to rust
Corundum. Locality: Winza, Mpapwa, Mpapwa (Mpwampwa) District, Dodoma region, Tanzania. Size: thumbnail, 2.8 x 2.0 x 2.0 cm. RUBY. This is a killer thumbnail specimen, my favorite matrix thumbnail from the lot that I had. A bit of matrix is host for 2 crystals of lustrous and translucent, cherry red ruby with exquisite micro-details on the faces and sharp bevelled edges. The larger one, exhibiting superb crystal form, measures 1.5 cm across. These ruby crystals are totally unique in form, and combined with color and gemminess make for a dramatic matrix presentation that is unlike rubies from any other locality in the world, so far as I know. Because of the balance and aesthetics of this specimen, and the quality of the ruby crystals (which have some cutting value as well), I regard this specimen very highly. Thumbnail or not, its superb. But as a thumbnail, for overall balance and poise, I think it is the highest competition-level quality.: photo by before March 2010

On The Strip, Las Vegas, Nevada. Visiting Las Vegas once, on a morning walk and trying to frame an image with three glasses that were sitting in the dirt, I heard a bottle break nearby. I snapped a couple of images and realized that something had moved in the frame. I don't know if somebody threw a bottle at me or not. And that is my trivial story of a random act of violence in Las Vegas.: photo by Dean Terasaki, 10 June 2009: photo by Dean Terasaki, 10 June 2009
