Well I'm hopin' you're right, and it looks like you may be, 'cos monogamy is my aim right now! (Well, one of my aims.)

we don't have a deadline, or a wordcount. not yet. for the first issue we were hoping to look around untill we found a few stories that we really liked, to kind of get it off to a good start and define it.
we're looking for stuff that's outside of the "hardcore" sci-fi world but still borrowing from it. vonneget is sort of the center of the bulls eye. not techno-fetish, no intergalactic politics, something with a bit more humanity and substance than "wouldnt it be cool if in the future ______."
it should be able to pass as hip, and suit an audience a bit more diverse than the usual sci-fi crowd. (not that i have a probelm with single overwieght bearded men. some very good freinds of mine fit that description. and i'm just a couple buritos away myself)

Oddly enough, that was one of the insults thrown my way.

Your assassins are among us, are they not? Oooooo, clever, clever, Phantom of the Rex!

I played FFXI when it came out, and was out of it within two months. WoW is leaps and bounds better. Plus, it sounds like the game for you. It has a EXP rest builder - the more time you are logged out of the game, the higher the bonus builds up. So, in the time it takes someone to level up, if you dont log into the game for three or four days, you can do it in a fifth of the time. That way, casual gamers can get a chance for the really cool high level shit as well.

Agreed. So many people whom have no clue, or are exactly the thing that a person (like Burroughs or Thompson) hated, are the ones now waving the banner and preaching what they believe to be the gospel.

Then again it doesnt take much to make me think the worst of people; I hate them.

Especially the one who signed me up for 'O'. I hope there is a special level of Hell reserved for that kind of villany.

you got that right. tedious. but, it looks like i lucked out this time, at least in one class. my black history prof. is, odd as it sounds, this lady

1981-85 Hanna Abedou Bowen Jones, Liberia
1975-78 Minister of Post, 1977-78 Minister of Communication, 1978-81 Minister of Health and Social Security and 1983-84 Vice-President and 1984 President of the General Assembly of the United Nations.

should be interesting.

did you ever get to spend time in fornt of any of the guest profs. in FW? Irvine Welsh was doing a class the last semeser i attended.

Go tell them all you finally read it. And you "get it." That'll get you some action.

Thanks for your comment on my drawings!
Always good to hear when someone appreciates your work!

I know, I've had it in my profile for some time.

Edited to add: But I just noticed I didnt put the link anywhere in the message, so hopefully they will see your post and clicky clicky and see for themselves!

Good job Rex! Saved me from myself!

Totally agree with you, it seemed for awhile there they figured out that after CTHD that as long as they stayed near that formula, they could make some bank in america. You should see the trailer on apple.com for the movie, looks very funny.

Damn, that's a long, yet very good, story. I never thought of him like that either, but if you cant be hurt, yeah, that would make sense.

Superman is a twat. I'll certainly read -- and love, I'm sure -- any Superman book Grant has a hand in.

But Superman is still a twat.

It's been awhile. what's going on?

I've been thinking about the "Last to see them alive" thing. I actually have a great idea. I'm going to try to write something prior to the 14th. I've been pretty busy, but the idea I have is oh so good.

i realized i need a word program on this computer. skimped out on it when i ordered the computer thinking id never use it.
id like to try this to see if i can do it and come up with anything interesting. i mean really, i havent written since i was 18 or 19. i may have lost it. and god, i cant even imagine what has become of my grammar in all these years of online posting and journal writing

Yes! Now this is a thing I must do before other things to do!

i know, wouldnt space be the coolest death? i was thinking today about the people that died in the shuttle (techinically they werent in space when they died, but pretty close). sure it sucks they died and all, but they were just out in space. man, i wish i could go out in flames like that. once i got to space, i wouldnt really need to do anything else in my life

Few days ago, was a family dinner, havent had one of those in ages. We went to Red Lobster, my wallet is still whimpering, and we sat around and talked for a few hours and had good food.

I know it's not as smashing as some super party with alot of drinking, drugs, and models, but I had a really, really good time.

You are a genius.
I never would have thought of that. I called Borders and not only are they going to replace it-but since they only had one copy-they're putting it on hold for me.
Thank you.

Homicide.
It appears I'm now on a crime/cop/prison show kick.
I'm on the 5th season of Homicide and I'm just starting the first of The Wire-and I've got the first 2 seasons of Oz looking at me all impatiently.

I dont know why, but every time I see your profile picture I always think I see you in paramilitary gear or some futuristic leather outfit. I think it's just the - blurred - zippers and buckles and the black.
