Just saw my first W.C. Fields movie (International House, with Bela Lugosi, George Burns, Gracie Allen, Cab Calloway, others). It's a shame they don't make movies that weird anymore.

The best book of poetry I've read in some time is Rob Halpern's Disaster Suite.

They just keep releasing Adorno's lectures, for which I'm very grateful. History and Freedom is a blast so far.

The compulsion

to post something

A friend (who I'll leave anonymous, since that's the way it is on the LiveJournal page I've linked to), composer, teacher, actor, playwright, secret poet, and extremely humble person, has been teaching at an alternative school in Korea that sounds fascinating enough for me to direct you toward the possibility of reading about the experience.

This book contains innacuracies about the moon.

(on a post-it stuck to a book returned to the Madison public library the other day. the purported innacuracies, specified by another post-it inside, were not innacuracies)
