He's so funny. He was in town promoting his book a month or so ago but I missed him.

I haven't found that to be the case at all. I'm also particularly glad to see the comparison to <I>The Blind Assassin</I>, as I've got that one waiting in my TBR pile. =)<BR/><BR/>I've seen that David Sedaris book everywhere too.

I'll be honest that I haven't gotten much reading done today. I'm updating my bookmarks on del.icio.us to include all the Sunday Salon members. It might be a project I'll have to continue tomorrow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
