on the beach
more fun with spam
 |
Now here's a great idea. A cell phone
with an analog clock on the cover! Who would have guessed design would
ever go this far? But who cares, right? You're getting smashed on the
beach. Broiled like a lobster inside and out. And you never did quite
get it about the big hand and the little hand anyway. Hey baby, you and
them glasses. Whatzat blue shit yer drinkin mind if I join ya don't mind
if I do...

[yes, we realize this is totally stupid. it is for testing purposes only.]

But wait. Because it is so stupid, here's something smart as a bonus.
We came across this after finding something very cool (more about that soon) after
stumbling across a quote (a misquote, as it transpires; more about that soon too)
from Virginia Woolf, of whom we are not one bit afraid. This is from a review (of a
book so dumb it's not worth the bibcite) by Louis Menand in the (pop-up ridden) New Yorker. He says,
and I quote... "There are writers loved for their humor who are not funny people, and writers admired for their eloquence who swallow their words, never look you in the eye, and can�t seem to finish a sentence. Wisdom on the page correlates with wisdom in the writer about as frequently as a high batting average correlates with a high I.Q.: they just seem to have very little to do with one another. Witty and charming people can produce prose of sneering sententiousness, and fretful neurotics can, to their readers, seem as though they must be delightful to live with. Personal drabness, through some obscure neural kink, can deliver verbal blooms. Readers who meet a writer whose voice they have fallen in love with usually need to make a small adjustment afterward in order to hang on to the infatuation." So girls, we know it's hard, but do try to be careful what you wish for.

More of Chris Locke's photos |
Until a minute ago, I had no photos. I still have no photos to speak of.
I don't even have a camera. But all these people were linking to "my photos."
It was embarassing. It's still embarassing. But I'm used to that.
