It's called 'We wish to inform you that tomorrow we will be killed with our families' by philip gurevich (sp?). Incredibly well written, but incredibly sad. The irony with which he writes is great. I might have to read a vonnegut or joan didion book in the middle.

What have you been reading? Got any suggestions? The one I read before this was a book by farmer so again depressing crap, aka Haiti has been crapped on for the entirety of its existence.

He's speaking at a conference in town. I'm going to beg my boss to let me take off friday so I can go. I've heard he's a dbag, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have important stuff to say. Much like some of our favorite posters on here
