I'm launching a new project. I collect weird junk, and, more to the point, I have a lot of weird junk. So I would like to be charitable with it; I would like to give it away. That's right; I will mail or deliver this stuff to you for free! All I ask is that you justify to me what you want it for. Give me a good story. Stuff (and shipping

Believe it or not, I also had a copy of the book version of Bill n' Ted's Bogus Journey. That was a good year for now-a-major-motion-picture type books. I remember the T2 book having quite a bit of odd extra scenes written into it, that only made sense 12 years later when the director's cut came out on DVD.

In this single comment, I've probably written more than any other person on the subject of such shiterature.

So anyway, I propose that you give me the Brian Bosworth book so that I may eventually translate it into Russian. I figure that by about that time Russians will be getting their hands on movies like Stone Cold. If that's not enough reason, I'm willing to trade it for something equally moronic.

По рукам! Хорошая сделка!

Потому что, по-моему, русскую миру нужен перевод "Боз" по-лучше, чем Яакова Смирнова. Очень смелое предприятие.

This has all reminded me that I grabbed several other books for you about Mao and Castro like a year ago and still haven't gotten around to delivering them. I'll try to come by soon with them.

Еб твою мать!

I fucked up; I haven't done this in a while. That adjective should be русскему, not русскую. How embarrassing.

Holy SHIT! Oh Holy Fuckin' Shit, someone's got a copy of motherfuckin' ARCHER'S GOON! I propose that you send me that fine piece of litratyuh, so I can reunite with all my friends from those nose pickin', concealed boner days of 8th grade study time in the library - Archer, Erskine, Torquil, that bitch who would "steal your pants while you were in them"... you know 'em! Hell, I still like the example of the protagonist's contempt of his father, who was "a passenger from now on."

Reply to this with an affirmative, and I'll e-mail you my address. Even my work address, so I'm sent the book itself instead of a slip to redeem it at the post office.

HOLY SHIT ARCHER'S GOON

Done and done.

[cruise_elroy]

That's awesome that you remember this book! For my part, I don't, but of all the books on that page it's the only one I would read. Email me your address and I'll mail it out to you.

I received Archer's Goon days ago, and blew through it in a couple days. Good times, man, and thanks for the delivery and expert packing job. Salud.

i smoked up in joseph campbell's old office.

[cruise_elroy]

He would probably it was because of the failure of modern religion to give you the transcendental, life-affirming experience you needed that you turned to drugs. The old stoner.

Anyway, please tell me the story; I'm quite curious. You didn't smoke up in Bill Moyers' office too, did you?

[avrilincandenza]

no, not bill moyers' office, tho that would be awesome. campbell's office was this bizarre little building in the middle of the quad in the middle of campus. after he left, it was turned into a tea house, which, at night, was turned into something resembling an opium den.
