Should I stay or should I go?
Hmmm. Moving, moving, moving. It keeps drawing me.
List of potential locations:
Tokyo / Japan
Advantage - really cool places to go, great food, chance to write about the underground Japanese music scene, would get a relatively well paying job
Disadvantage - don't know anyone, don't speak Japanese, expensive
Montreal
Advantage - cheap housing, cultural capital of Canada...

The move is over I've happily relocated to a dilapitated shack in a temporary shantytown where I can write philosophy, play cards, and boil coffee in tin cups. There's an old man with a lazy eye teaching me chess openings and another old man whose hands tremble with a rictus boogie teaching me how to bluff and shuffle with the fastest five card drawers in...

A shaky old man that knows poker is much more useful than an old man who can play chess, in the long run.

Lemonkid, you are one of the few people I look up to as an influence. Thanks for putting up with my SG nonsense. I mean what I say about the influence thing. You've got the goods, kid. I hope it serves you well in the future.

perhaps because I look like I'm about 300lbs in it.
I'm fat enough as it is, thanks, I don't need pictures that misrepresent my weight

All of the best Showtime Softcore starts out with that brand o' bliss, kid. Keep up the good work. Watch out for the wolves.
Do you ever have one of those days when you're like.. hmm.. I really want to read this book (that you've only just discovered)... then you walk into your favorite used bookstore to talk to the owner who's a pal of yours and they have a used copy, signed by the author no less?

- deer
- mountain goat
- eel
- squid
- octopus
- cuttlefish
- frog
- rabbit
- ostrich

RAW is great. Raises some wonderful, thoughtful points in his nonfiction pieces. The primary one being: Question Everything, be it religion, social conventions, or science.

Ever read the Cosmic Trigger trilogy? Prometheus Rising?

"Sun Ra: A Joyful Noise"
Thanks for all the kind words, I've just found out that my friend has been released as a hostage in Iraq. That's definately a relief.
I had a fun party.. the combo of going to the beach on my actual birthday with a few friends and having a birthday party at the house, I think is the best combination (and birthday!) I've had in years....

Planting morning glories. I'm notoriously clumsy.
And boots. Big, black ones. Like the ones I'm gonna get on ebay and wear to prom.

The letter was not professional to say the least! 'I'm searching for my baby, and that baby is a new place' - Blind Lemon (circa 1927)
'I'm searching for my baby, and that baby is a new place' - Blind Lemon (circa 1927)You get up, kinda grumpy because your alarm was set properly, but didn't go off - making you late for work, you feel dirty and unclean because you don't have time to shower and wash out the sweat and hair gel from the night before at the DJ Jazzy Jeff show which kindly permitted you only 3 hours of sleep.

Oh my god, sweetie... I hope everything works out. 
I ignore her mom. I've had my door shut and my headphones on all night. She really is a nice lady, but my god.

he got some very awesome pictures of you. you're a camera ham, my dear, there's no question about it. the kung-fu picture of you and ophelia is particularly hard-rocking. a. (he said, here, "come on, refer to me as the late leningrad. i know it's much longer, but it's cool.") says he'll bring his laptop tonight and we can do some awesome picture uploading. (not just normal picture uploading... awesome picture uploading.)

That's a messed up house situation, but hey, at least you're out in a couple weeks. It reminds me of one or two 'communal' houses in Berkeley, when I was living there. They were hardcore lefties, with their own house constitution and shit. I consider myself relatively liberal on non-fiscal issues, but even that was a little much for me when I visited a friend who lived in one such house. Crazy shit.
Well, good luck with your next spot.
And I do remember The Littlest Hobo. I mostly remember looking for shots in and around places I had lived, since it was filmed in Canada. Heh.

Advantage - Go carts, funnel cakes, plenty of churches, a helicopter just like the one from Magnum P.I., and country music shows.
Disadvantage - Restricted firearm use.
