THE ZONE OF UNEASE, Jan 28 – I have a new Vice column out regarding the phenomenon
of god damned fucking shit that doesn’t fucking work right. This column was
inspired by Blogger / Blogspot, which I would gleefully curb stomp into thousands of
shards of plastic and circuits, if only it were a physical thing I could
physically assault in the real, non-Tron
world.
Apparently I’ve been a slow learner in figuring out how bad
Blogspot has gotten. When I tell people of my coding woes they say things like oh yeah, that site sucks. The general
tone reminds me of the night I was driving a large rental truck north from
Virginia with all my possessions in the back and my two cats in carriers in the
cab and my pal Neil woke from a long nap as we passed Philadelphia only to say,
with obvious disappointment, oh you took
THIS route 95. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THESE THINGS?!?
The good news is that I’ll have a snazzy new blog up
sometime before I leave for my book tour in April. Speaking of which, the dates
are slowly firming up. Thanks to every one who has been writing in. I’ll keep
the dates below current. And Vice has
also gone and printed 3 chapters from the new novel. If you’re worried that
these will spoil the book for you, please keep in mind that there are still
another 106 chapters that you have not yet read.
