  • He’s got 48 pages

    I recently finished reading Autumn of the Patriarch by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, which features the longest run-on sentence I’ve ever read.  It takes up the entire final chapter of the novel.  It is 48 pages long. In Lorrie Moore’s novel A Gate at the Stairs, a student at the University of Wisconsin is smitten by […]

  • Goldsboro Goldbugs

    “The Goldsboro Goldbugs topped the Greenvielle Greenies and Ayden Aces in the standings, in the battle of alliteration.

  • Discography

    I found this discography on the web after googling my first tape Stars and Songs.  Why was I looking up my first tape, you might ask?  Because I don’t have a copy of it myself and I was trying to remember all the songs that were on it for a project I’m working on called […]
