Totally impersonal special deliveries

*
59er: been the same place everyone else in North America has been---sheltering in my subterranean wallow like a Kronosian Ice Targ. My alternate email address imploded thanks to my ISP's customer service desk. I'll be posting a contact address on the page... sometime.

MAJ Bellows: I apologize for silence. Am very interested to hear about the hypgnosis experiment. This week DK is coming to the Land o' Lincoln and, less pleasantly for citizens of her town, the Land o' US Grant. Too bad there's not time for a side trip to Galena.

Rusty: please check Sluggo's pulse. There's been an unusual lull in the stream of HuffingtonPost links into my email box for a week or two.

Big Oafish: bench in east workshop completely constructed, including trim; awaits finish sanding and sealing. Will fill countersunk screw holes and gaps in trim as practice for rescuing crappy kitchen window casing done by idiot window installer. Bench is simple but quite hefty; weakest thing about it is the wall it's tied in to.

Gurlitzer: I've read that there's a rare, remastered version of Chicago II somewhere in the world. The remaster supposedly adds the fidelity and presence of the great engineering done for the CTA album. Wouldn't it be great to hear Danny Seraphine playing a drumkit instead of Amazon boxes and soup cans?

Marginalia: I'll visit your green and pleasant blog soon. Have wondered if you've been affected by the flooding; afraid I don't know your geography, other than its proximity to Swinging London.

  1. As an "exercise to reader", Lefebvre thought/wrote much on social and otherwise imposed strucutres on space(i.e., an infused, marinated and pervading capitalistic urbanization). While "value" and "worth" are just peel away stickers with an inferred innate relative context or even (cough, cough) dialectic, look no further than the 8 nearest fast food or car service businesses. Mr. Phelps, your mission is to envision the slow infusion of alternate uses of space in support of a societally based humanist construct. If sufficiently gradual the tentacled starfish will expire in a bloodless and perfectly preserved state.

    Don Q. (and good luck)
