UAA Consortium

Sup, fools. I'm at the UAA library with Liz from Leroy's. We've been amping on coffees since 4:30 a.m. and we plan on being here, slammin' more back until 8:30. We've each got our own things planned at that time, but it looks like we're hangin' until late morning. So that's cool.

I'm about to get off this site for now to do some fact-checking for my book. It feels like a good time to do it. I spent my time at Leroy's writing the chapter about the one lane bridge. I'm starting to leave more and more out and using brackets for [notes... do this and do that and write about this and sing this song and talk about your pendulum swings] and then carrying on later in the chapter. It's a cheap way to get through this book faster. Sometimes my notes become so detailed that I'll probably use exactly what I write and just remove the brackets when it comes time to type the book up at the end.

What was I talking about? Oh ya, fact checking. Gonna research steel girders and the population of Osage, IA in November 1997. Also gonna check on the World War 1 red-ball runs on the Imperial Highway. Whoa! Sounds like I got a bitchin' essay coming along. You know the types, the ones with the really long intellectual titles and subtitles. "Winter Axis Steel Girders of the Twentieth Century: How the Imperial Highway's Red-Ball Runs Affected Population Shifts in Northern Iowa, 1910-1997; An Essay of Historical Fiction." Hey! Maybe That's what I'll re-name my book! No more of that lame Highway 9 stuff. And people can abbrev. the title and snazy New York Literary types will refer to the first great Work of the 21st century as "W.A.S.G.T.C: H.I.H.R.B.R.A.P.S.N.I; A.E.H.F" Hells yeah!

Okay. Gonna go roust in the net elsewhere. Later today, I'll update I'll hit'cha wit da Road Trip.

COMING SOON: "Dairy Queen Run 2005, #1; An Intimate Look Into Viceral Memory and Dimension Transportaion; The Roots of Interpersonal Relationships"

Peace and Love,

Song of the Day: "All Nite Diner" - Modest Mouse
(Liz wants to make a commercial using that song. I think she's got a fantastic idea.)
