Yeah, if only the readings weren't in Italian.

Some pretty cool Air music on that album though, a few decent ones.

Loving it so far. There's actually a section about the suture shot that has some ideas remarkably similar to a paper I wrote  . He still has yet to really mention Kieslowski. I love reading his criticisms. I've been going through it pretty slowly, but I'll post more when I finish if you'd like.

She's winning me over in her interviews for Juno, so...

^ i still remember her letterman appearance promoting that book. dave is so easily impressed, the stuff she was saying was not even shocking. she's a cool nerd, tho. cool in that she has nice legs, is funny, and chose to not take the easy way out and become a gimp in a dungeon/farm somewhere as part of some perveted sex game where she has to also milk cows.

at least not for the rest of her life.

Yeah, there's an interesting piece about her in the NY Times from Sunday.

I've started my long and arduous journey...I'm reading Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's/Philosopher's Stone.

why?

are you trying to bang a 14 year old Julie Taymor fan?

[Gamblour.]

This is for my own ill-read pleasure, trying to jump start my reading.

If I wanted to do that, I'd blow her mind with Donnie Darko or Memento, or something.

I hope to finish it in a couple of weeks.

Uhhh, I bought this at Goodwill for a dollar.



Any thoughts?
I'm only 50pages in and, while I am enjoying it so far, I'm beginning to feel that much of the writing is a bit extravagant, like an author too in love with his words.

[polkablues]

Well, you paid the right price for it.  It's not a bad book, just terribly over-praised.  I spent the whole book thinking about how much better Vonnegut would have written it, had he written it.
