After AWP I went with friends to the Garden State 20th Anniversary Concert. Zach Braff, Natalie Portman, Donald Faison, Sarah Chalke, The Shins, Frou Frou, Iron & Wine, Colin Hay, and others. I remember when I saw Natalie Portman slip those headphones on Zach Braff's head.

Fourth grader saw some of my current reading and went straight for the Derrida. "'Oh my friends, there is no friend.' How can he talk to his friends if there is no friend?" I think you and an ole Jackie are on the same page, kid.
