			All this reminds me of a not very good novel I read a few years ago called Gilligan's Wake.  It was a stream-of-conciousness novel like Finnegan's Wake. It offers the back stories of the island's residents. The one that I remember most is Lovie Howell being a heroin addict and having an affair with Daisy Buchanon, and the skipper being a WWII PT boat captain and friends with JFK.

			I'm just wondering about those donuts in the corner of your avatar. Is there something we should know about/between you and Uncle Duke?

 I have to admit, I was inspired by his donuts, but mine are KRISPYkreme donuts! I just couldn't make it work out so the KRISPY part was very visible. But I do so love glazed donuts. I just haven't had any for ages. So, I was inspired by Uncle Duke, and that's as far as it's gone. But I did devote a "donut man" song to him in the MR member name thread thing. Is my new donut obsession showing? | |
