2. Hey GC... Been Going Through Some "Interesting" Times Of My Own...

Found my roommate\landlord (39 years old) dead on the couch back on Oct. 26th. I had been moving, and I came to move some last stuff, and there he was... just layin on the couch like he was taking a nap, but he was gone. Caused a pretty big shock among my little group of friends. Very sad. Felt truly bad for his mom. She was a single mom, had him when she was very young, and he was her only child.

Sigh...

Loved the election however... except for the turds that keep dropping into that punchbowl. Prop 8, Blagojevic. Rick Warren, etc...

Anywho... I'm trying my best to enjoy the holidays with family and friends, and will probably post more after the new year begins. Curiously listening to a LOT of Christmas music this year, LOL! Anything rockish, bluesish, or jazzy especially.

Hope you and yours are healthy and happy, and you have a wonderful holiday season.

3. so sorry to hear your shocking news

same to you. Buddhists love Christmas we distribute "Christmas Spring Rolls" to stunned neighbors who don't know how to respond. Its great fun.


I am looking forward to Senator Franken what a turd that will be dropped in the O'Reilly's punchbowl.

10. Found you in wikia...

You seem to have some notability, but you might not make the cut for authors, unless, oh, you can point me to some publications that talk about you *and* your work.

[DavidDvorkin]

12. That could be the problem

I had the impression that authors with quite a bit less notability had their Wiki pages, but maybe they've had more written about them.

In my case, there were reviews when the books came out, but those aren't online. One exception is this, which is Google's look-inside feature for a printed publication. But even that's a review, not some sort of critical analysis.

8. ha ha, good one although......

... a few days won't get me down.

Every night I go to bed and thank the Lord for allowing me to live in such a magical, historic time. How lucky, lucky are we.
