While were discussing great moments in Orlando Magic history, I always go back to Anthony Bowie, or was it Donald Royal - mediocre 3s tend to run together, calling time out so that he could get an unchallenged assist to complete his first and final triple double against Detroit. Doug Collins had a lot of nerve forcing his team to walk out on class like that, huh?
Whoever is doing the canon/cannon thing and, I think, also the train of thought thing, please stop. I think the comment at the time was "Start over Hemingway..."
While we're on Hemingway, and since my e mail's back up, wasn't it the other way around, Camille? Didn't JDS go to meet Hemingway during the war and witness...ah, it doesn't really matter. I'd recommend Big Sur, though, if your looking to let Kerouac earn his "great shakes" as a writer... I'd also like to think that Neil Young's 180 unreleased songs as of 1978 would make a more interesting vault, whether he's continued to release material or not, especially as they would have been written during a decade in which his canon was really a cannon, if you follow me. Now I'm doing it. Cryptomnesia. And it wasn't a pop quiz, really, more just an invitation for all y'all to stay on point...
I'd recommend the St. Gauden's museum to whoever's making the pilgimage to Cornish. I think you got kind of shot down on that one, but a visit to the grounds of the sculptor's place is doing nothing but helping the local economy. And you can feel it. Feel something...
Would anyone mind if I took this opportunity to hawk a really nice set of used snow tires I'm looking to sell for cheap? Let me know.
In any event, it is good to be here, among the bananafish. The Bessie/Fat Lady thing was worth the price of admission and why I signed up to begin with.
