  If you like Vampire Weekend, may I recommend The Shins?  I find them constantly inspiring, here's a video and a song that has inspired my shorts "The Thief of Balloons", "La-La-La-La-La" and "One More Saturday" (I'll get around to editing them soon)  | |

  I'm going to narrate a lot of these stories by the end of the year anyway (i'm just looking into microphones at the moment) and put them up on my tumblr log  Then you'll get to hear my less-than dulcet tones as I mangle everything that sounds so good in my head  My headache is fine. Sangria always gives me headaches, but it's so tasty and so summery, I just can't help myself   | |

 I will also start reading, Personal Days by Ed Park, a modern proletarian novel. The queue is backing up. | |

				I Remember Yves Montes
			 I just read I Remember Yves Montes. I like the story. Could we have a pince-nez wearing action hero in Dr. Tapper? Maybe not. Yet, the story does make a strong case for the positive role pain plays in our lives. The dialogue is natural and and is reflective of the long friendship between Tapper and Robichaux. The wiping out of memories shows that the influences of Orwell and Huxley are here. Thank you |

 Thanks for reading, and I'm immensely pleased that you enjoyed the story.  I don't know about action hero, in the other ending I had for the story (and the one that's canon in my imagination) Dr. Tapper dies in an Austrian mental institution. Unless he's undead and....wait that's another story altogether   | |

			Actually now I'm coming to think of it, I have to write the story of the mental institution and a woman there....I will call it "The Ninth Month of Midnight" (inspired by a line from a Walt Whitman poem).   Damn, fiction really is a rolling ball of snow.   |
