Writer. Editorial professional (open to new clients—publishers, not individuals). Mystic (astrology, Buddhism, and roots among other things). The Memphis Grizzlies. Immersion in the natural world. Rap. Bob Dylan. Enough.
Several times this year I have had the feeling that it is truly the book for the moment. I am due for a reread anyway, been denying myself that pleasure too long.

I could probably recite the script for Wonder Boys by heart atp. After seeing OBAA my first thought was that my favorite genre must be movies where the lead wears a bathrobe outdoors.

Spike’s last joint was very “get off my lawn” about rap.

And Ja’s comments during walk-off were pretty clearly about Pat Spencer, not Mr. Thinskin, right? I feel like if he annoys Brevin and Pete enough that they would say what they did, he must be pretty intolerable.

Run hot water on the lid and then knock it with the handle of a butter knife. Which I resent being told when there’s strong arms right across the room but to my chagrin it usually works.

I dashed immediately to Astrodatabank after seeing yesterday’s news and I think that Mamdani’s mercury mars conjunction on the IC in Scorpio is putting in work.

You are not. Glad to find this when I had the same thought.

Has Indiana reconciled its Waffle House problem? In the grunge era there was a Waffle House in Bloomington that was not a real Waffle House but that seemed to have prior claim to the name in the state; real Waffle Houses had to be called Waffle and Steak.

And from Bleeding Edge (2013), p. 476: “Horst is semiconscious in front of Leonardo DiCaprio in “The Fatty Arbuckle Story’ and does not look street-ready.”

I am just delighted whenever anyone discovers this movie. And the director’s cut is definitely the way to go!

I leapt on Bluesky to make sure other people were are flabbergasted about the One Crazy Trick for Ruining the Best Thing About the Books as I was. Destroyed the whole arc and for what?

I know it’s a little bit of backtracking since you were there yesterday, but the canyon at Upper Taughannock is really impressive and the hidden upper waterfall—which you can drive over without seeing—is one of my favorites! Ludlowville Falls and Buttermilk Falls are nice “drive up and see” spots.

So I just called Taughannock and made sure the new parking lot is open so I didn’t give you a bum steer: there is a new parking lot on Gorge Road just below Jacksonville Road that will make for a short level walk to the rim trail and new bridge over top falls.

Lucifer Falls is likely not great for your parents if you haven’t already headed out—steps are uneven and challenging even when dry.

Lodi Point is the best!

Of the four, Lucifer Falls (Robert Treman state park) is most time-consuming because of zillion stairs. Lick Brook “wildest.”
