I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

NYC Air Zoo. [link] Anyone ever seen these? They're great.

No! Truly awesome.

So Brooklynites (Fort Greene precisely) if you see a feverish blonde boy, almost 5 feet tall, about 112 lbs, wearing a Red Sox cap - that's probably him.

He'd have to be feverish to walk around New York in a Red Sox cap.

(Actually, I've never seen anyone get bitchy like that. I hear it happens in sports bars. It was just fun to say.)

Tomorrow I have my first helicopter ride. I'm unhappy that in the rush to get out of the house this morning, I forgot to bring the crystallized ginger.

Crystallized ginger for helicopters, huh? Its this like "red ribbons around steering wheel columns" or "salt and bread and wine for a new house"?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I read GWtW when I was 12 . Once or twice. I didn't hate it, but I wasn't sure why it was great

good morning Shirl and good night

I have two dozen cupcakes in my house, and no one to eat them.

What should I do with them???

They're very pretty...

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

meara, I'd take 'em, head outside, find a nice picnic to invade to with people who looks cool and funny, and share.

If I weren't such a sociopath and had cupcakes, that is.

Yeah, New Yorkers are above that shit. But if you wear a Yankees cap into Fenway...

Heh. I think if I showed up in the park toting cupcakes and trying to give them away, people WOULD think I was a sociopath...

I wonder if all the homeless druggies with dogs who beg along Broadway would eat them. "I won't give you money, but how about a cupcake?" I'd be suspicious of me if I were them.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Oh, I know. I wouldn't normally take food from strangers either.

But it's a nice thought.
