point two seven: The initial idea (inspired by Cindy) was to read 100 books in 2002. The Brothers K held up the works a little, so now I'm just keeping an annotated list.

point two seven two: Is this year's attempt. Off to a good start, if I do say so myself.

commonplace: A high concept low volume mailing list for cell phones, pagers, and other text-based wireless devices. You can cheat and subscribe your email address too, but it's not nearly as fun.

malbork: Italo Calvino gets credit for the name, but Yahoo! gets credit for everything else. Better not to read the disclaimer. NB: Activity sporadic; in fits and starts; helps to have read Anne Carson and/or have the hots for speculative fiction.

saussure tee: In which I get all theory on your ass, at least within the context of the Magnetic Fields and their album(s), 69 Love Songs.

art rock: Lecture notes on seminal art rock bands; popular with the kids.

mix tapes: Is one of my New Year's resolutions. All you have to do is ask.

stat: Bicycle geekery. If it would stop being so cold, I could even ride them.

itinerary: Departures, real and imagined. In progress.
