hey cunningh4m: is that DFW book any good? I read A Supposedly Fun Thing and that it was outstanding (esp the titular essay).

this is definitely of fringe interest but here's a mashup of Frida and Penderecki I made for a fellow noiseboarder's birthday

Sk0w, I've only read one of the essays so far. But yeah, good. Supposedly Fun Thing is my favorite book of his (including the fiction).

personal statements are the worst. it was during the personal-statement-writing process that i decided "fuck grad school" and moved to pennsylvania instead.
i got a 1470 on the GREs and i like to brag about that. so i'll mention it here because it is almost relevant.

my personal statement (and my letters of recommendation, and maybe my resume) was what got me into grad school. it wasn't my grades, that's for sure! i'm living proof that you can slack off through undergrad and still get into a fancy grad school.

ditched "Vineland" to do 3 barthelmes on the trot.on 4th & enjoying immensely. he clicks for me, unlike the pynch. an effortless read.also 1/2way through "the ticket that exploded". not read any burroughs in abt 15yrs & i forgot just how fantastic he gets at the top of his game.

finished 2666. really blew me away unlike Savage Detectives which I thought was pretty overrated. not sure what I'm going to pick up next. someone left a book called "Hopeful Monsters" by Nicholas Moseley in a free pile on the sidewalk and I grabbed it but not sure if I want to read it now.
oh yeah also read Ragtime a while ago, that was good
