You are so right, John. I feel like I want to write a complaint letter to The Guardian and ask how dare they post a picture without a proper BBM tent. It's so rude!  Forget the letter I will send a package with Bettermost cans.

  • Brokeback got us good.
Since my Annie Proulx collection was getting a little large and expensive, I checked the Bird Cloud book on CDs out of the library and listened to it during my commute. It was quite interesting and AP herself read one chapter.

I'm sure that must have been quite something, listening to her read her own words.
