Update Blurbs
the world should never forget
(05/25/2004; 12:29pm) - Marginalized by Obituary Writers:
Ten days ago Gloria Anzald?a, one of the foremost theorists (and activists) of lesbian, Chicana, and feminist issues, died at the age of 61. It is believed that Anzald?a succumbed to complications from diabetes, exacerbated by her inability to afford quality health care in the state of California. Her books This Bridge Called My Back and Borderlands/La Frontera are required reading for sociologists, cultural theorists, and anyone seeking to better understand the US-Mexico border culture.

Sunburned, weathered, aged
and immeasurably pleased,
I find myself in Shanghai again,
like that, poof, it's Monday.
Thank you for that weekend.

Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn't seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy takes out his phone and calls the emergency services.
He gasps: "My friend is dead! What can I do?" The operator says: "Calm down, I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead." There is a silence, then a gunshot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says: "OK, now what?"
i dont get it

i was goingn to blurb, but bobert's joke is funny enough to see the sunlight for one more day. (he shoots his friend, ha!)

Not yet. But it's in the air.
Responsibilities are dropping like flies, as the mercury creeps higher.
It's almost time for gin and tonics at dusk,
barbeques with shitty beer,
and late afternoon naps.
welcome back, summer.
you have been missed.

Back from New York, where I spent time drinking and talking with Amanda, Bobert, and Andrew (plus a non-meLounge supporting cast of millions). I promise not to rant here about which city I prefer (Buffalo), but only to note the vast differences which reveal themselves in six hours of movement. Like, everything. And that's only from one end of New York State to the other. Imagine if I had gone to New Jersey.

nothing will come of nothing. a quiet weekend here on melounge, but out in the real world, we'll be celebrating our site-op's commencement. nothing may come of nothing, but apparently five and a half years and a class in marriage will get you a degree. congratulations, bobert. -amanda
