I just realized, about a week late, that I forgot to post up a little sign that said: I'm on an educational sojourn. Or: I have departed for colder, less hospitable climes...but with more bugs and poets in strappy dresses. Or: I have left California for Vermont, the one place where I regularly find myself shopping in Wal-Mart, if only to overhear conversations that go like this:
Man: You know if you got diamond pointed bullets?
Worker: Yeah, we got that. Not hollow points, though.
Man: Gotta work with what you got.
Worker: Don't I know it.
At any rate, I'm currently in the wilds of Bennington, Vermont until the 21st (please do not rob my house -- the vicious man eating cocker spaniels are there, along with a vicious man eating mother in law) so this space may be periodically left unattended. I encourage you to read a book in the interim. I'd suggest Dave Cullen's Columbine, by far the best book I've read all year. See you soon...
That big screen TV in my family room that looks exactly like the big screen TV that disappeared while your mother-in-law was out walking the cocker spaniels?
Yeah, that's not yours. I got it at Fry's on clearance.
What do you mean we don't have Fry's in the Midwest?

Diamond-pointed bullets? *baffled* As in the shape, or the gem? What will they think of next?
