Properly Awry

U2 and Pearl Jam performing at the same concert? Only if you live in a land far, far away, or in my imagination.
And after a long music video drought, Pearl Jam has done a totally fucked up video for Life Wasted. Eddie, I understand you don’t like hoopla and the press and all that jazz, but did you have to release a video displaying your head in various forms of grotesquenes?

After I read Melissa Bank’s first book , The Girls’ Guide to Hunting and Fishing, a few years ago, I added Ms. Bank to my list of authors to watch for.  Her second book, The Wonder Spot, lives up to her first and is a satisfying read.  I rarely read straight, plain ‘ol fiction, but writers like Melissa Bank give me hope that maybe there is some good, unpretentious stuff out there.

Rachel snorts.
Ivy snickers.
Jenks gets big.
The good guys win.

We, 14 others, 6 dogs, and a baby spent the Canada Day long weekend at Rancho Relaxo on Pender Island.  There was much consumption of booze, food, and fun had by all.
