1. A full Los Angeles post is forthcoming as soon as I finish the final draft of my thesis, which is supposed to happen tonight (gee whiz!)
2. UCLA is offering me a lot of money, so I might actually go there.
3. My only concern is earthquakes, ie: the potential of meeting an untimely end in one.
4. The best part of visiting UCLA was when this prof I want to work with very proudly told me about how his course is number two on the Young America Foundation’s list of the Dirty Dozen “most bizarre and politically correct college courses.”
5. In unrelated news, I think I have finally discovered how to make The Facebook, that dangerous tool of the devil, into something fun and interesting: Fantasy Facebook! I am pleased to report that I am now friends with Obi-Wan Kenobi, Fox Mulder, two Dale Coopers, Jean-Luc Picard and two Han Solos. I am, however, chagrined to report that some motherfucker administrator has disabled the Doppelganger Corwin account. That was some of my finest work.
6. Dear my roomate: Please stop listening to Metal Machine Music.
Now why would they have disabled Lorwin? One wonders.
If it’s because someone reported Lorwin, that someone is so very lame.
All the courses listed on the Dirty Dozen look rather fascinating. I feel sad for the conservatives who feel the need to bash women, blacks, marxism and culture.
So how was Jake?
I didn’t actually get to see Jake. But I did get to see a play with Alicia Silverstone in it. Oh, and I saw Joan Crawford’s makeup kit, which means that I am fulfilled in every single way for the next five years, at least.
It’s funny, most of those sounds like courses I’d take. And frankly I’mnot sure why they’re funny… but I never did understand conservatives.
In other news… CALIFORNIA!
