Well, I wasn't trying to "put you in your place". I was just in kind of a pissy mood, and the stuff you said about us all is what I've been saying about us for a long time. I mean, me? Yeah, I'm a corporate whore who wishes he had the balls and the talent to take art head-on. Who wishes he had some revelaion to shock the world. But in the end, the cycle of eat, earn, spend, sleep... we're all pre-programmed comsumption machines, just churning dollars from one corporation to another and back again. It's just frustrating to see someone take what you hate about yourself, wrap it in prettier words, and throw it back in your face as though you weren't aware of it.

I guess the upshot of what I'm saying is this:
Yeah, you're right. You're absolutely right. So... what now?

Oh yeah, and your question. I'm starting on the Appalachian Trail sometime in early marrch. It takes about six months.

And another thing. I hadn't realized that your two-month streak applied to... playing solitaire... as well. I mean, I'm in a longer dry spell than the Kalahari, but I pay some pretty regular visits to Mrs. Palmer and her five lovely daughters. In that context, two months is... well, that's a hell of a thing, man.
