Monday Quick Notes

It's MLK Day, so I am home from work, but Olivia isn't. So I am watching Taki by myself. See?



Speaking of baby pictures, I have an event this week.

The Green Arcade
Wednesday, January 22, 7pm
Nick Mamatas, author of Love is the Law
Jarett Kobek, author of BTW

In 1989, with the collapse of the Berlin Wall, history ended.
In 2001, with the destruction of the World Trade Center, history began again.
In 2014, two guys talk about their books. One is a crime novel about 1989; one is a bildungsroman about 2001.

BTW, Love is the Law: The two books together sound like a sentence and a reminder of what is important, no matter what happens to history next.

Some come on out! There may be Brazilian steakhouse afterward!


In other news, I sat through and livetweeted the Flowers in the Attic TV movie. Shitty!

As I predicted a while ago, N17 is making a comeback. I just hope they shoot Golden Dawn members. Anyway, In his statement, Xeros pledges that the “rebel’s rifle will resound again.” “We want rights and we will gain them while holding weapons in our hands,” added Xeros, who spoke with photos of Che Guevara, Communist World War II resistance fighter Aris Velouchiotis and Greek independence fighters Theodoros Kolokotronis and Georgios Karaiskakis in the background.

More later! Baby's stirring...
