I am pleased as punch with our exchange this week. Thank yous especially to Linwood and Thunder. And based on Linwood's comments, I would like to ask those that have the time to learn about JT Leroy. You can read about the poseurs of poseurs here. This is truly a fascinating article and provides the shocking tale of Leroy's steps to dupe everyone.
But as you all know, we can't stay that serious here for long, as Dale clearly pointed out. So, why don't we go to Planet Unicorn where things are pink and the unicorns are named Tom Cruise.
And that brings us to music, how about a strummy number? Here's Chet Atkins "Happy Again" and Wings with "Arrow Through Me" there are few bands that remind me of the lovely '70's more than Paul McCartney and Co.
Arrow Through Me
I'm intruiged by this JT Leroy thing, but come on. The link is nine pages long. Nine pages. I thought that the point of the interweb was to expedite the learning process. I'm only on my fifth sentence and I'm already losing my train of thought. Toasters. I promise that I will get through the entire article, but damn you for forcing me to cogitate.
I certainly don't want to be accused of trying to direct the creative flow of the great C101, but food for thought; the "Polaroid Project" that our good friend Stefan is reviving could be an excellent topic for discussion. If for no other reason than it contains artistic nudes of both C101 himself and of faithful contributor Dale. Not to mention a topless Thunder.
Oh Thunder, I know you are just being a pill. I thought the Leroy story was perfect considering your outspoken views on plagiarism and frontin'.
By the bye, I was contemplating the mention of said project, but it runs the fine line of the personal life of C$ and c101. We all like to remain moderately anon, here great Thunder.
"My name's NOT Leroy."
Somebody tossed C$'s ambrosia salad and put the lotion in his basket.
Don't I wish Linwood.
[3] HAHA. Oh yes it is.
I've got nothing more on Planet Unicorn, but how about an attack on the entire endeavor of blog critics? Look at what this douchebag Schickel had to say in the L.A. Times in response to the response of internet book reviewers when more cuts were made in print venues for book reviews. Wow.
