Mission Statement: "To do very little, for very few, for not very long." Disappointing the easily pleased since 1819. Not as good as it used to be from Day One. "History is Bunk" - P.T. Barnum. Eudæmonia, hermeneutics, phenomenology, ontology, chronotope, heteroglossia and mnemetics out th' ass! Artificially Intelligent before it was fashionable. Fat Camp for the Mind! "Nothing lasts, but nothing is lost." Flogging a dead soufflé since last August!
Thanks, Neal. I never know. Back in the day, I knew a couple of TV sit-com writers, and they told me they'd stare at each other's scripts, brows furrowed, and grunt "that's funny" if it was, with no hint of laughter. That was the encouragement they needed, eventually confirmed when the studio audience yokked it up. Me, I get no response from what I find mirthsome (and I'm not asking for any - especially not LOLs (LOL)). One of my most self-amused pieces was about Sundar Pitchai's favorite REO Speedwagon album, one of the least looked-at pieces ever in the history of looking at. There's more rock n' roll humor coming up in a piece about Merrel Fankhauser. I can't lose, with a name like that.
