Sunday is prep day. Collect the week’s story rejections and send out new stuff, water the plants, get the groceries, cook up the week’s chicken and broccoli lunches, clean the bathroom, pack for Monday’s MA class, read the Tribune, hit Borders and coffee with Jenn, recover from a hangover if neccessary, roll over the week’s

And I just wasn’t in the mood for him. I have this bizarre reaction

From Moorish Girl: And I’ll always be jealous of how he [my father] once spent an airplane ride shooting the shit with Salman Rushdie (during his fatwa years). When he got off, a police squad was waiting to escort Rushdie off the plane. My baba came home that night and told me, “Randood, don’t believe

Just got my latest copy of Scientific American. Why is it that whenever they do a story on “early man” the covershot is always, always, always a man holding a spear?
