The Moment We've All Been Waiting For

The Long Awaited
(and heavily edited to remove the worst of my guffaws---yes, that's how much fun they are)
Interview/Conversation with
Tomas Cathcart and Daniel Klein,
authors of Plato and a Platypus Walk Into a Bar...

Some of the books they recommended: Scott Spencer's Endless Love and Men In Black, Russell Banks' Continental Drift, and Tom and Dan's Macho Meditations (Oh go buy a copy. Make them feel better.) And don't forget to stock up on War and Peace.

And, as a goofy bonus: the Fifty Best Movie Robots (according to other people, not me).

Episode Sixty-three: Start the Revolution Without Me

I race through and opening and a closing to bring you two huge chapters. Why? Because—honestly—if I didn't, you'd kill me...we're SO close!

To stave off your appetite until next week, you can watch
this goofy movie. Before there was a Blazing Saddle...before Frankenstein was Young...there were...The Corsican Brothers.

Episode Sixty-two: In The Clutch

Here's the car with a clutch.

Here's the car without.

Sigh.

And here's Frank's Diner. And the Aurora Forum (search for "Jefferson") thingy.

And today!?
ANDY MINTER!

Sorry about the stereo kicking in and out. I have NO idea what's going on...but I'm working on it.

Episode Sixty-one: You May Have to Call Me Professor

A VERY BELATED congratulations to Teresa and Rachael for their Knitting Nightmares. If you're interested in a look-see, you can view the Knitty pattern Teresa used, "Blaze" and here's a pic of the completed...item.



Looks good NOW, no?

Getting close to the end of the book! Only eight more chapters! When you get on Ravelry, look up the Craftlit group and join us.

NOTE: If you sent a donation in to support Craftlit and you have a website I linked to before, I probably lost it. While I was cleaning up the sidebars I...erased...a bunch of stuff. My bad. Please email me with the weblink so I can replace it!

Episode Sixty: Let the Deprogramming Begin!

I come back to earth after my SAWP experience, find a favorite writer, learn not to fear Lucie's hair and find that I have to read a chapter to save you from mispronunciations that were simply too too odious.
Book The Third, Chapters three through five (and two of 'em from Andy)!
