For the love of god! Nikki Sudden died a few weeks ago! One of my all-time favorites and I had to hear about it from Rolling F-ing Stone!Also, my mind has been lost in fairer thoughts...
Plus I'm finally reading The Davinci Code. I'm hooked. And I don't care that the writing's not f-ing Faulkner -- it's goddamn compelling!
And that completes the telling of the story of Passover.

I'm guessing you finished that book by now. It's a real page-turner. It helps that half of the chapters are less than a page long, too (I like a book with lots of blank space on the pages... did I just steal that line from you?).
I can't wait for the flick. There's a cool scene in the trailer where a CGI image of Tom Hanks in a side view mirror gets digitally smashed by a CGI car. Undoubtedly another paint-by-numbers Ron Howard film, appropriate for an adaptation of a book by a fill-in-the-blanks author.
I had never heard of Nikki Sudden, but now I've read his blog. How odd that is. The music playing there was good, I'll say that. What do you call music that automatically plays on a site, anyway? The soundtrack? Maybe I'll check out some Swell Maps. I guess I can download it now without feeling guilty, as Nikki won't be missing any royalties. (That sums up a good portion of my ethic: "What's the harm if they're already dead?")
By the way, I'm converting our old videos to DVD as we speak. From the other room, I can hear me, you, Jim, Chris and Jimmy G. (minus twenty years) screaming at each other about whether Norman was a good janitor or not. That's entertainment!
Let me settle that argument: He wasn't.
Yes, I guess the music that automatically plays is a soundtrack. Like Nikki's brother, Epic Soundtracks. Dead as well.
I enjoyed the Da Vinci code, but we must never lose sight that I am a simpleton. I kept cross-referencing with my Anton Wilson Conspiracy Dictionary.
Grok.
