Jim's Crush List is out. He has a newbie on the list.
I will remind you that Jim's Crush List is second to Catherine's Stalking list - on my list of lists.
While we are talking about Jim... I have to say that his decision to ban Kent and Dave is the most interesting action.
Consider this.... the decision to ban them from posting is a form of censorship. (regressive) The fact that he sanctioned a poll on who he should ban smacked of good old fashioned Democracy. His decision to cast the poll aside and ban them both was a Dictatorial act - dismissing the Democratic approach. In the end, the blog is his, so he can damn well do what he wishes anyway. What a fascinating exercise in Schizophrenia!
Ron Silliman is talking line breaks today.
A big Thanks! toLaurable for feeding my passion for baseball and poetry at the same time.
Ralph Waldo Emerson said of language...
"The angels are so enamored of the language that is spoken in heaven, that they will not distort their lips with the hissing and unmusical dialects of men, but speak their own, whether there be any who understand it or not."
