Fuck! Those Valentine Lockston chapters are difficult as hell to write and edit. But like I keep saying...it's coming right along. The next chapter to edit coming up is another chapter about Crazy. One of the comments being made about this little opus of mine is that i capitalize a lot of words contrary to the dictates of grammar. Well, they don't say it quite like that, but almost. And I do, for emphasis. Plus you know, a lot of characters never get names. I really like that part of it. If I do say so, I think that is one of the more interesting aspects of the voice.
I also have to give Casey at least 3/4 of a chapter, which is going to be gut-wrenching and horrible. Should prove to be a helluva read.

Anyway, I have to get past 42000 words by the end of the weekend. I hope I don't get too distracted to do it, as I'm kind of on a roll. Not a kaiser roll, but the kind where...oh I got nothing!

Have you noticed lately that you're getting more Emails from Nigerian diplomats or preists trying to give you an inheritance? I have. Imagine my luck! I think when I get that money I'm going to buy some property on the moon, and maybe some kind of barely legal asian slut. I wonder what life would be like if you only bought things people tried to sell you in Email...

I probably should have hipped people to this guy long ago, but if you love movies you should try reading [profile] sweinberg who is an articulate, insightful movie critic/blogger with excellent taste. Even when I disagree with him, he is thoughtful and reasonable in his audacious disagreement (kidding!).

Oh, and how 'bout that Robert Blake trial? I know I'm one to give people the benefit of the doubt. But if he didn't order this hit, he needs to buy a lottery ticket because he is the luckiest sonofa bitch who ever lived. Either than or he is channeling the spirit of Hurley on LOST. Anyway, Baretta's case has gone to the jury so hopefully the fate of him and his smart-ass cocatiel will soon be splashed across every bit of media they can think of. And then Jon Stewart will comment humorously on the situation that we might all use the power of laughter to move on with our lives. And that'll be fine, because everyone my age feels like they've pretty much grown-up with Jon Stewart on TV, so we trust him. Plus he called someone a "dick" on a talk show. Remember that? That was awesome...

Awww, thanks! Nice of you to say. But what movie was it that we disagreed on? Not MY fault you enjoyed Howard the Duck!

I think we disagreed on both Spiderman 2 and dang, I forget the other one.

Didn't you love Van Helsing?

kidding!

You didn't dig on Spidey2?? Wowza. Welllll....the movie made an ASSload of money, so that automatically makes me right!! Mwaahaahaaaa

Yes. And by that logic, The Mummy Returns is a better film than American Beauty...it must be. It made more money.

You'll like him, I think. You both have that kind of exasperated wit that comes from paying close attention to things.

Well, I do fancy myself to be quite the wordsmith.
