nice to see honey pop her wee head out of the hole. unfortunately it was for a bad reason, which I was aware of. my bf and I were trying to embarrass each other by doing searches for each other's name, but none of my sinister links worked. which was really too bad, because all my posts have been shining beacons of wonderfulness in an otherwise dreary landscape of craptacularness. which is to say, they haven't been. I saw a man trip over a piece of plywood that was helping to hold up scaffolding, and I giggled. was that wrong? it was quite humorous; he got this huge "wha..." cartoon look on his face and his eyes bugged out. he didn't fall and hurt himself or anything; I'm not sadistic. speaking of which, why is it that I never saw scaffolding in london? new york is approximately 4130 year younger than london and yet you can't walk two blocks without large metal poles getting in your way. they shade the sidewalk though. I was going to write a rebuttal of tom "corduroy boy"'s comment that critics serve no useful purpose, but it's pretty self-evident that they do. I'll direct you all to the joint colaboration "in defense of criticism" by joseph heller and that guy from "30-second previews". it's a wild read. I tried to get free tickets to see weezer tonight, but it didn't happen, because 1) I didn't care to sit on the sidewalk for three hours to see a band whose most recent album sucked 2) it was sponsored by trl and 3) there were 14-year old boys painted green harassing the k-rock van for tickets, and trying to steal tickets from nsync fans who "don't like weezer but it's free, and that guy is cute" (actual quote). in honor of sister "P F" disco, a book that is quite good is "a plague of murder" by colin wilson. an album that is quite good is martha reeves + the vandellas' "the ultimate collection". nice to see peter carter back. -eric ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
