6/1-3 - at a microcon where they’re serving thousands of $$ worth of craft beers. Ever have coffee-flavored stout with breakfast? Neither had I.
6/5 - you DO know that we're on a collision course with Andromeda, right? Here's a mind-boggling rendition of what the sky will look like when that happens. http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap120604.html
6/6 - live, acoustic Beach Boys. They look like train wrecks, but that harmony is still there. http://tinyurl.com/bs8xlnj
6/6 - RIP Ray Bradbury - what he meant to me here: http://tinyurl.com/85foyyo
6/7 - at BEA (Book Expo America) in NYC today. Publishing's musical chairs continues - I keep running into familiar faces in unfamiliar places
6/7 - excellent dinner and good company at the Lamb's Club after BEA with good company.
6/10 - saw the B'way revival of "Harvey" - thought Jim Parsons was pretty damn perfect as Elwood. Forgot what a feel-good story it is.
6/14 - this has sort of been my view all along... http://twitpic.com/9wav52
6/19 - Repairman Jack pulls a traumatized soldier back from the pits: http://tinyurl.com/7xko9wz
6/21 - this video has been around a long time but I still laugh every time I see it: [video=youtube;tuj9tU5tAP4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuj9tU5tAP4[/video]
6/21 - flying up to NH for a guest speaker gig at Porcfest, the annual libertarian gathering. My first time there. Should be fun.
6/22 - Porcfest: agorists, anarchists, minarchists, voluntarists, Free Staters, open-carrying gays (straights too) - no gov't in sight.
6/23 - the Porcfest green room has Hendricks and Patron. I hate these decisions.
6/24 - crap. My flight out of NH is canceled. Must spend night in Holiday Inn. At least they have a cool diner http://www.thecman.com/restaurants/airport-diner/
6/24 - I’m interviewed in the Library Police 78 podcast. Check it out: http://www.clydeumney.net/librarypolice/index.htm#ep78
6/29 - okay, I've said I'm not doing short fiction anymore, but I was asked to contribute to an E.R. Burroughs tribute anthology. How could I refuse? I spent the first half of my teens devouring his stuff. Terrible prose, excruciating dialogue, wonderful imagination. I know the ultimate secret of Pellucidar. Must... reveal...
6/30 - my Pellucidar novelette is practically writing itself (now, if the damn thing would only TYPE itself...)
