Angine

 John Elkins told us about new French sensation Angine de Poitrine.  Listening now on YouTube.

Relief that the Sage booking on Royal Carib is real.  Messages and phone call from Michelle gave more relief.  Phil's 100 bills in foil spooked me about 4 am and I woke up worried we had been scammed.  

Went to Kirk's, gossiped with Beckie about town things.  Car working well, took bags to the dump.  Light on about tire being low but assume that is car computer not yet caught up with Reality.  

Reading more of Wallace.  Could stop, now on page 171 and have the idea.  Poor W.  Like reading Jim Carey and Robin Williams et al.  Angine sort of goes with it.  They all dressed in polka dots.  Look and sound dated instantly.  

Austen gave us clarity last night.  Watched the three episode version of Sense and Sensibility.  Got it, finally, the twisted tale.  

173 "They found out that what they needed to get their feelings of being themselves from was themselves."

whoa  did not expect this  190  Eastern Europe  "tended to view all non-family members as outsiders"

was Wallace reading Handke or something?

209  I see Best Faces, faces I remember well.  (What a passage this is!!!) "I intuit that the Frisbee players, whom I continue to watch, are nonbelongers."  

210  "These alone are the faces that stare out, protected and imprisoned, from behind the barbed borders of their own structures, the faces that know that, but for the grace of a God distinguished for the arbitrariness of his grace, it is they who would be bound and muffled in the College closets.  The faces that are unreachable from this far away, and that look through you and digest you in a moment, against everyone's will."   whoa     what a passage    our old buddy,    Roy Andrews 

why is it the physical place where it happens that you hate ?
