That's so sweet:)
Posted by: Rachel at June 14, 2005 01:10 PMJeep, most of the writers I would like to meet are, sadly, dead. My exposure to modern writers is embarassingly limited, though I intend to correct that soon.
Posted by: Christin at June 14, 2005 01:25 PMYou should start with Douglas Coupland. But not with _All Families are Psychotic_. Great title, but not up to his usual standards.
Try _Generation X_ and then _Life with God_.
Posted by: jeep at June 22, 2005 10:33 PMUh oh, that book title is actually _Life After God._ It sounds nihilistic, but it really isn't.
Posted by: jeep at June 23, 2005 07:17 AMWell.... it looks like the best thing you've got going is that you've visited Seaside OREGON.
Posted by: Ian at June 23, 2005 04:38 PMIan? You never know what kind of riff-raff is hanging around your blog, eh?
I've got nothing but love for Oregon. I have especially fond memories of getting in the Pacific Ocean in March and almost freezing to death!
Jeep - I'll check that one out. Thanks for the recommendation.
