abstractnixon.com. I’m digging this photo/blog written by Univ. of Missouri grad student David, newly added to my list of favorite blogs. Check out this photo essay of a gay, rural couple (there are gay couples in rural Missouri? Who knew?). The sense of loneliness and longing and standing on the outside in this photo and caption is palpable.

And he’s cute to boot. Gay, single, urbane, and only 5 months older than myself. Too bad he lives 2 hours away.

RIP John Knowles. Call me predictable and simple minded, but A Separate Peace remains one of my favorite novels. And unlike most critics, I enjoyed Knowles’ other works, especially The Paragon and Indian Summer.

Embarassing confession: In high school, I tried to write a one-act musical based on “Phineas,” the original short-story that predated A Separate Peace.

This is a test post. I’m trying to get listed on the new weblogs.com page of weblogs with RSS feeds, but I can’t get the ping to work right. Having categories through weblogs.com is a great idea — I’d love to see a GLBT category.

Update: Still not working.

Update: Woo-hoo! I’m on the page of weblogs with RSS feeds.

Update: Oops. The listing only lasts for 3 hours. Now the page is empty again.

And will “It” look like anything like “The Entity,” the device Mr. Garrison invented last week on South Park (the episode pics of which are currently not available at the offical South Park website — conspiracy anyone?)
