new lamination colony eBook: read.

there is a new story of mine @ pindeldyboz. hopefully, you can read it. maybe, you can read it and print it then eat it. i wonder if it would taste like my fingertips…yum. anyways. this one’s about something. i just reread it and thought i was in detroit michigan. ms. xtx joins me.



last night i saw the movie antichrist. incredible. had never seen anything like it before. stayed up all night thinking about it. woke up thinking about it. i hate recommending things and i hate having things recommended to me (maybe because i'm sort of a jackass)...but this film is like a stake in the damn brain - so do the damn thing.



was directed by Lars von Trier – i hadn’t seen any of his movies before this one. and there are really only two actors in whole film, charlotte gainsbourg and willem dafoe. don’t think i’ll be able to see either actress or actor as/in any other character again. shoot.

here is an article on the film that helped me digest after I saw it.

new one @ writersbloc.

my little brother is in college. his friends are now emailing/texting me in regard to my old papers. they want them. i feel bad for them. i want to help them. yesterday, one of them needed something on divine comedy/dante’s inferno. still had the paper on it. read it. was reminded of hell. thought about hell for a while. ate some blueberries. thought i’ll probably end-up there, in hell (if it exists), on some bogus, low-grade, spiritual moving-violation.

here is hell:



i would put myself somewhere between the vestibule and the 2nd ring of the 7th circle. where in the hell will you be in hell?

new story @ unlikely. it’s experimental . just typed that word and wanted to stab my tongue with a pencil. not actually sure what experimental means. possibly means you will want to fight about it. grrr. there is other good stuff in the dec update: joel van noord. gabrielle sierra has one in the nov09 archive. some good poetry too. try it out.



the world cup draw is today. for nonfans – it's all going down this summer in south africa. personally, i’m looking forward to all the violence/mayhem - there will be lots. remember this?



c'est la vie. if anyone wants to go to africa in june - email me.

new one @ necessary fiction today. i guess it’s part of a larger work. i’m sick of saying that. read it maybe.

check out the new decomP. it has timothy gager & tim jones-yelvington, etc. - i particularly like p. edward cunningham’s short here. as always – nice work jason jordan!

if you haven’t seen this already, it’s kinda hilarious.
