GP is tackling serious stuff. The kind that I won’t touch for fear of making too many enemies.
-c has added a blogroll and writes about football.
The Ambassador hasn’t done anything since our lurker in South Carolina freaked her out.
Yours truly has his second column up at Faster Than the World (hint) and is waiting for Michele [...]
Acoustic Dylan and Site News
More Electric Dylan
Five days in LA with the family was enough to remind me how nice life is, and coming back home was icing on the cake. I have, as of today, finished all four presentations in my very first quarter as a graduate student and still without a nervous breakdown. Two weeks to go and two papers to write, [...]
The Horse Isn’t Dead, But…
Happy Thanksgiving to my American readers and happy Thursday to my Canadian one. Since I don’t like New Year’s resolutions, I have decided to make a Thanksgiving resolution: Get some homework done before going to Grandma’s tonight.
I’ve been de-virginized over at Faster Than the World, so go check out the column. It’ll be familiar to [...]
Pre-Thanksgiving Police Blotter Post
I found myself so swamped with homework a few days ago that I told everyone to not bother looking for new content here and directed you all to Faster Than the World. Well, it looks like I might now be a regular contributor over there. Can’t very well turn down an offer to write among [...]
Placeholder Post
Blogging will be very light for at least a week. I suddenly realized how much homework I have to do and so all writing energy will be concentrated elsewhere. (GP: I’ll try to pick up the conversation where we left off.)
In the meantime, check out Faster Than the World if you haven’t already. They’re in [...]
The out-of-Towners Can’t Hold Their Liquor
It’s Tuesday again, and that brings out the crime blotter. Suddenly the blotter and I are back on good terms after my disappointment with the lack of post-Halloween horror stories. Police blotter, allow me to formally apologize and offer my mended heart back to you.
Normally I’m a stubborn kind of fellow and wouldn’t dream of [...]
If Anyone Cares to Weigh In
The two posts that receive the most hits from search engines here are the one on Audition and the one on Francesca Woodman. Searches of the former usually have something to do with plot or characters while searches of the latter usually have something to do with Woodman’s suicide and mental illness. When I wrote the piece on [...]
It’s My Weblog and I’ll Post What I Want To…
One of two poems by Ezra Pound that I can stand:
Cino
Italian Campagna 1309, the open road
Bah! I have sung women in three cities,
But it is all the same;
And I will sing of the sun.
Lips, words, and you snare them,
Dreams, words, and they are as jewels,
Strange spells of old deity,
Ravens, nights, allurement:
And they are not;
Having become [...]
Could This Be the End?
I just killed off the blogroll today and it feels great. The only people to whom I will link on the front page are those who actually comment here. I might just stop reading those blogs I formerly linked to altogether. I can’t say I have yet, but I am weaning myself off of them.
I hope [...]
Public Domain Picture of the Week
In honor of myself for finishing another presentation, here’s an illustration of Paradise Lost by Gustave Doré. I think it’s Satan addressing the fallen angels.
Happy Monday/Tuesday to all. Perhaps this will become a regular feature. Yes, I am really that uninspired.
