Pillars of the Earth

This is what I read over the holiday season.  I just found out there’s some kind of mini-series of it and that makes perfect sense.  

“Soap opera.” I stewed for weeks over how to describe it and finally (after giving up almost a month ago) those two words really nail it for me. Ironically this book came into my life soon after the Thomas Hardy debacle and I say ironic because if I were to put that name before the two aforementioned words it would describe this book even better. It seemed to me that Ken Follett was a depressed gay hairdresser who had read every Hardy novel between high school and college so when he cut hair he would tell the ladies Thomas Hardy stories.  
 
Judging from “Pillars” though, he clearly had mixed up the characters and plots so badly that by the time Bev or Jan or whomever urged him to write his own book he was happily free of any real plagiaristic details.  
 
Well the book is a real fun read if you don’t mind cheap and catty set in a rich historical tapestry in which case you might also try “I, Claudius”.

Site Being Made Awesome

Hey, it’s that time of year when there is not much for the band to tell you, so that’s when I take the opportunity to (somehow, through trial and error) fix what bothers me about this very website. Problems like not being able to navigate?? Whose idea was that? I wanna beat them up.

Anyway, if things are especially screwy in the next few weeks it means I’m messing around with templates or whatever. Should only last a few weeks, tops. If the site is screwy after that it’s probably your fault. WHAT?

These Go To ’11

Well, we had this big party New Years at the Odditorium, and honestly I don’t remember much of it, for although I do not ever imbibe in alcoholic elixirs, I was experimenting with psychedelics (like they did in the 1960s), so my account of the evening is certainly flawed. I think everyone who attended had the greatest New Year in history.  Ask them.  I mean, how couldn’t they?

I mean, that’s pretty legendary.
