Dream Girl ,'Bring On The Night'
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
I think I was the wrong age for Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. I just couldn't get too excited about Phaedros.
I read it in college as part of a seminar on rhet crit. Enjoyed it. Favorite line? "The best students are always failing." That's me!
I've had the discs for Wonderfalls since last April. Neener. Neener.

Ah, but that's because you are magic Allyson. I am a merely me, and distinctly lacking in the magic department.

She keeps her magic in her spleen. She's magisplenetic.
She's magisplenetic.
Oh! Tag?
I can only dream of being able to use "specificity" so effortlessly.

Oh! Tag?
Of course.
She's magisplenetic.
And female while UnTall. Thus, closer to the earth. That's powerful medicine, right there.
And I have pretty hair.
I liked Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance a lot. I like quantifying things that aren't quantifiable. It's fun!
It also passed the time during a drive from Illinois; the friend I was traveling with had also read it, and we were both shocked to discover that we'd come away from it with totally different views of what "quality" was. I think arguing about it kept us occupied through all of Ohio.
It also made me very startled when wossname started talking about "The QUAN" in that Tom Cruise movie. I kept thinking, "Pirsig's back?"
