the best part about rod barnett: he has quoted himself on his web page. that's the most incredible thing ive ever seen. i dont think i would ever have the moxy (im now qualified to use jewish words) to quote myself. i wonder if he was thinking, "Rod, where are you going to find a powerhouse particle of profundity about Fate and Taking Charge? Oh, and hey Rod, nice alliteration back there." then he leafed through Bartlett's Familiar Quotations until he stumbled upon the perfect nugget of wisdom, only to discover that it was written by none other than ROD BURNETT. boy, was his face red. "Of course, Rod; I should have gone with you all along." then he chucked his own chin.
jen and i went to see david sedaris tonight, and i have to say it was the richest experience ive had here at ISU. better than michael moore, better even than john waters. ISU gets some of the kick-assingest speakers in the US, because they usually need someplace to sleep between LA and Chicago. mr. sedaris is the funniest man to ever try being funny. we bought his book "Me Talk Pretty One Day" and then we couldnt bear to read it. instead we built a little shrine and made plans to sacrifice james on it. i'll let you know how it goes.
hey billyjoebob? where are you? i miss your brand of aussie angst. and, you know, it's kind of all about me, so you should probably start posting again real soon.
