Tangential, open letter to ironic hipsters: Do not fear your influences or ambitions. Do not seek merely to emulate; seek to improve. Retain a sense of history, but define or express the awesome in your own way. We can appreciate authenticity, we can appreciate adding pinstriping to an already gorgeous blonde. We do not respect following the crowd, we respect the choice to thoughtfully go your own way. Coolness is not achieved by rendering everything else uncool. Coolness is enthusiasm, insight, and creative thought. Coolness is the questionable content pictured above. Coolness is Murilee's stories. Peace out. Rock on. - skitter
Yay!!! Book reviews again!!!! Thanks again for the link to Motorbooks.com. They've got fabulous books and some great sale prices on stuff. Sorry I haven't been around much this weekend, off on a fishing vacation with the wee-beasties, so either fishing, yelling, or drunk, sometimes all three!
Awesome. I would like to take this moment to point out that the Gawker hamsters have been especially unkind this weekend. I think the end result is the lack of comments. We all still love you Murilee!
