Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
In that class.
The next class had the middle initial "L".
Was having the middle initial K some sort of bizarre high school dress code?

Corwood, I read the first page... are the rest any better? I got to this:
Do I speak as a member of the "privileged class"? If you will—but classes in the United States are mobile, not static, which is the Marxist view. That is: Immigrants came and continue to come here penniless and can (and do) become rich; the nerd makes a trillion dollars; the single mother, penniless and ignorant of English, sends her two sons to college (my grandmother). On the other hand, the rich and the children of the rich can go belly-up; the hegemony of the railroads is appropriated by the airlines, that of the networks by the Internet; and the individual may and probably will change status more than once within his lifetime.
which irritated me beyond measure for probably twenty different reasons, and then the woman in the ad at the top of the page started warbling when I hadn't asked her to, and I came back here, inexpressibly irritated as you see me now. Should I soldier on?
