Laurence Sterne

This is a beautiful book. So read it!

I want to amend, slightly, my fourth impression; it has evolved. I should have figured it out in the last post, but I’ve got such an aversion at this point to any sentence that begins “This book is about language,” that I earnestly strove to remove the expression for a book that had engendered in me the most penitent respect.

– OH, HYPNOS! – I did finish Tristram Shandy last night, and am not far behind this week. But I am that deep-down bones tired… the kind that I cannot forget for even a moment, and coffee hasn’t been helping so far.

You can check out the good news here.

I’ve been hoping for something along these lines for a long time. It’s only half of the equation, (the other half being to design a diverse array of marketable vehicles) and GM will have to solve the whole thing in order to get back on track.

– YESTERDAY – Worked worked worked. Looked for public domain photos that I wasn’t finding. Then I barely made a lecture by Joyce Carol Oates in which she delivered a parable on why one shouldn’t shop Uptown, and went on to give some very compelling answers to questions about her past and technique.

Tom zapped me on this, so here goes.

Remove the blog in the top spot from the following list and bump everyone up one place. Then add your blog to the bottom slot, like so:

1) Christopher
2) Damien Scott
3) Geek Boi
4) Tom
5) Connor

Next select five people to tag.

I’d just recently turned eleven. My parents were looking around for houses in Linden, Grand Blanc, and thereabouts. This would be my last year in Flint as a kid. My social life revolved around three things: the Nintendo, Dungeons and Dragons, and my bicycle.

– THE WEEKEND – Reading, writing, you know how it goes. Matt came over to watch the superbowl. Jess made some really great nacho dip, we dragged the TV into the living room, and ordered pizza. So that was cool.

On a lighter note, my friend Matt just forwarded me this. True, funny, short, and worth reading:

Detroit: Burning Questions, Easy Answers, by Detroit Free-Press columnist Michael Rosenberg.

Jessica told me about the sensation surrounding the James Frey book, A Million Little Pieces, last Sunday. Sometimes it seems like my head’s in the sand over pop-culture events such as this, but I was glad that she apprised me, because it came up time and time again at New School the following week.
