This Is About.

It's a digital age, man. So to you we present our virtual talk show of Nonsense: The Silly. The Beautiful. The True. In our own words or those quoted by others. With our own art or that created by others. We will laugh. We will smile. We will entertain you all the while. So grab a drink, come in and let's chat. We'd like to meet you, your mama, and your hot cousin Fred.

What We're Shoveling Into Our Brains Today


*
Right now we're enveloped in stories that make us want to live more adventurous, more daring, more thoughtful lives. It's The Complete Persopolis on ze buses to and from work. It's a little nibble of our grrrl Jane Eyre every morn' compliments of our devoted deary friend Daily Lit. And it's the essays, all true as true can be, of Joan Didion, our idol if we ever had one.

Sigh. We'll miss them when they're gone, just like we find ourselves pining on occasion for Lyra and her brave prowess. But they're all still with us, aren't they? We s'pose. We know in our minds and usually in our hearts, but not always. Not always. We still miss 'em sometimes, when we didn't bring them with and we're looking for that one passage on that one page, and all we can do it try our best to recollect what words went where on the page.
