Look out…

Lehigh’s back home. And taking her rightful place on the bed. Yesterday I was awoken by three friends and a birthday cake of astonishing artistry, now I have to contemplate the prospect of eating most of a layer cake. Must invite more company over! As much as Lehigh wants to help, it’s a chocolate cake,… Continue Reading

Walking and Looking

> You could go to the store. Or you could clean and look for the part you need. And that would unearth all the other barbs of incompleteness. Don’t worry – I’m good. You can make a computer that will beat a human at a game of chess. But no computer can come up with… Continue Reading

Please may I have another twenty?

This morning’s dream involved Dennis Cooper telling me about the fantastic rents he was getting from a tenant on some Los Angeles industrial space.
