Running alongside

"Another thing Bethan had learned was that there was no real point in trying to understand anything Twoflower said, and that all anyone could do was run alongside the conversation and hope to jump on as it turned the corner." - The Light Fantastic, Terry Pratchett
Don't you think that much of life is about running alongside?

The trick is in the jumping. Judging the distance to the corner and knowing when. Never too early and never too late.

One...   two...   three...
Terry Pratchett will be reading from Thief of Time at The Booksmith on May 7, 7PM.

Check out the Mao-rabilia! (The Mao Sale: Propaganda Art from the Chinese Cultural Revolution at Sothebys). "Eeny Meeny Miney Mao?"

May 1st Skiboot!

Hey Chicago! TECHNOLOGY MAKES WAY FOR LUST. His desire turns me crazy/powerful/stupid. Handheld stories distributed northeast corner Clark/Monroe, Fridays 12:00-12:15pm IR-enabled PDAs only, say "beam me."

Reading Mauve. "Born of an experimental mishap, this odd shade of purple revolutionized the worlds of fashion, industry, and chemical research."

Banned 'Wind' book finds its way onto Internet. Ebay results.

New Yorker pick of the litter: "They were bred originally to be hors d'oeuvres."

Gustave Courbet, Self-Portrait: The Desperate Man, 1843.
