I, too, enjoy a good, fast Fourier Transform now and again. Sometimes I like nice z-transform.

today it became clear that the billboards are really going to happen. as we were weighing the merits of styrene vs. vinyl vs. canvas, i thought oh god, this is really happening isn't it - we're really going to build giant velcro billboards. it's one of those things that, when repeated inside your own head, sounds more and more absurd until the very notion of...

coming home yesterday from the lower haight, i walked by two homeless men, shopping carts full of stolen recyclables, huddled, speaking in confidence. as usual, i eavesdropped.
the first snippet of conversation i heard: "... the formula is for the extraction of nitrogen from soil ...". the second snippet of conversation i heard: "... for the combustible material ...".
so i'm stocking up on bottled...

You'd have to go through a lot of dirt to get enough nitrogen to do anything combustible with.

You're so fucked, I'm so going to haul your ass around Disneyland and make you love it

how horrible. i don't know what to say. my species is confusing.
how to eat a mango (in high heels).
it all begins with a moment of humid desire: ripeness of the flesh, and a slow trickle of wetness that coats the outer skin.
the best mangos come from hot places. the best mangos are small, and sweet. under no circumstances should a mango be larger than your fist. choose a mango that is orange, soft to...

I read the stories. When will you post more? I liked them very much, especially the frog one and the snail one.
I liked the frog one because it made me think about the things we do, how naive we can be about the consequences that our actions, or our EXISTENCE even, has on the world around us. Not a bad thing, necessarily, but a bad thing if we don't at least acknowledge the cycles of life. How that works, and how we're inextricably a part of that.
The snail one, I thought that was another perspective of the same questions you posed in the frog one, the idea that to this man, stopping to scrape the dead snail off his shoe is just another annoyance in what is presumably already a very annoying life. And yeah, snails die or whatever, this is just the reality of life, but to go through life without ever pausing to think about the consequences of inhabiting earth with other creatures, or to view this just as JUNK on the bottom of your shoe, not something formerly alive, or something that will return to the soil, is just such an oppressively human thing to do.
Yeah. That's what I thought.
The piggu one I didn't understand as well, even though I really liked the writing style throughout. I didn't get why he was such a popular pig. Why people visited him and stuff.

glad you liked the stories. 
i want to post them more or less weekly, though in reality, it will probably be more erratic than that. i think the themes you suggested are good, though there is probably no reason that the pig is so popular. he is, after all, just a nasty old pig.

Do we get more? I'm curious about this alexandra, and this shady macy character. And what's George got to do with all this? Anyhowzie, I'm intrigued.
there's a sty in my eye.
i'm afraid it will swell,
and swell and swell
it itches like hell.
the sty would swell so large
it would hatch!
and explode with bunnies
and kittens and rainbows,
and other things not so nice,
like barbed wire and bramble
and dry ice.
so before it should hatch
i shall don an eye patch,
and stomp around, ill-tempered...

Not only are you a Capricorn (aka The Supreme Sign), but your birthday in ONE DAY after mine. Pardon my ecstaticnesses, but it's really rare that I run into anyone with the same you-get-your-presents-combined bullshit Christmas/Birthday scenario. I feel you, man. One love. It's us versus Jesus Christ. I got your back.
