good day/ w'k'd this morn., made stunning eggs, skript pi'k'd this after and now sip chenin blanc and about to finish the welsh book/ it is shit in a chuck palanuick shit way (lacking depth, complexity, a sort of bullied grown up mid-level intellects picture of the dynamics of human relationships, the world demarcated into super-alpha-male bullies and pathetic, sniveling geeks who've been bullied all their lives and continue to be so, though they finally find some redemption/ id est nothing you can't learn about humanity from the hostel films (or indeed anything made by any reasonably intelligent grown-up geek))/ but i'm enjoying it...

I felt the same way about Master Secrets...The later Welsh is not as good, prehaps he's said all he has to say and should desist with regurgitationg weaker versions of earlier brilliance. The film version of Paluniak's Choke came out here this weekend. Want to see it, but reviews have been mixed. Loved that book, until the shit ending, that is.
yeah, hence my staying in the past most of my reading and listening existence. i've mellowed a bit but i still look to the classics for sustenance.
