Twenty sentences that won’t change your life.

There’s a little something around my sinuses that feels like it could be a cold. Last night’s flight home was smooth and undersold, which meant that I had two seats to slump into while I read a copy of The Age of American Unreason that I had picked up at the Nashville Airport. It turns… Continue Reading

Please let me track down my camera from wherever it is here in town. Oy. Tags: camera, dissapointment, lost… Continue Reading

Are you rolling in the ears?

A member of the New York Correspondance School sent a package to the class here at Austin Peay. Inside we found twenty pairs of sequined bunny ears and the phrase “How to Bowl like a Bunny”. So of course we all donned them and proceeded to bowl for the evening while the jukebox played things… Continue Reading

Half empty?

Where to start?

Introducing the rantlet…

Listening to Grace singing “Bullshit”, if singing is really the right word for it. Doesn’t matter: I still love her. There’s a whole degree of “I’m bat-shit crazy, now and for eternity” in her whole career that I just have to admire. I’m suffering from the inverse of the usual web rhetoric inflation impulse; every… Continue Reading
