awww sookie sookie now
--Gave two weeks notice on my current office gig yesterday and received a message today with a tentative schedule for a recruiting trip at universities in Russia, Poland, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, and Bulgaria I'll be on for the end of January/begining of February. If it's anything like last year's trip, it'll be a couple of weeks of Vodka and apple juice (the poles call it apple pie), beautiful eastern european college students, hung-over train rides, frightening meat dishes, and lots of good beer. Anyone looking for a summer job in Alaska?
--Can't seem to stop listening to The Mountain Goat's "Against Pollution" today. (thanks for the hook up, Hackmuth)
--In addition to a pretty cool DVD featuring a short on skater/artist Ed Templeton, a Lambchop video, and a brilliant short narrated by John Lurie, the latest issue of The Believer has a great piece on the stir David Hockney created in the art world with his book Secret Knowledge. Apparently, folks aren't too keen to the idea of "the masters" having used cameras obscura and simple lens technology to aid them in their creation. Watch clips from the BBC program on Hockney here.
--Finished issue 12 (the conclusion) of Charles Burns' series Black Hole last night. Genius.
