| Aw man, I'm sorry - maybe it's the insomnia talking, but this doesn't make very much sense to me. Anyone feel like explaining it? | |

| Nick, at the risk of inflating your ego exponentially (whether that might be a good or bad thing--you tell me), I must say--I thoroughly enjoyed this [list] and no matter how much you profess that it is not cogent, coherent and [staggeringly poignant], I love it! And we should hang out tomorrow! | |

| Interestingly enough, Svankmajer actually did some of those 30-second promo bits that MTV commissioned in its early days. "Meat Love" being one of them, I believe. | |

| 58. Artists don’t know what their best songs are.
You could do a whole piece just on this. | |

| liked the article -- the style strongly reminded me of a manuscript by some american dude i read when i was working for a publishing firm a couple of years ago -- can't for the life of me remember his name and i think it was only ever published in the states in the end -- it was entirely composed of semi-non-sequitur stand-alone sentences like your piece -- does this ring any bells or is it an unintentional similarity?? | |

| I have no idea who you mean, but I was kind of tgaking the mickey out of several people with this. And also kind of paying tribute, too. | |

| to clarify, this is a great piece. i liked: 24. The Manual; How To Have A Number One Hit The Easy Way by Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty is the only good book about music that I have ever read. good call. | |
