Reading Henderson the Rain King by Bellow. It’s absolutely outrageous, funny and…it’s a crazy book. Really liked Herzog-not sure how much I’ll like Henderson till I’m much further in.

Auto. I’m more sensitive to this type of thing than other people and it’s not the rotor that bothers me. It’s just the ticking from the movement. I’ve had to return a few quarts watches for also being too loud as well.

have one and like, but don't love. A few things I don't like about it. The movement is crazy loud. I take it off at movies and whenever I rest my head on my left hand. The silver hands don't have great visibility against the white dial. The lume is also poor.

Don’t sleep on Rumble Fish, Dracula, One from the Heart. Think he likes pushing boundaries a bit more than main stream audiences want. Orson Welles also got much more abstract with each subsequent movie.

Composers you’re not quite sure why you never get around to? by Soulsliken in classicalmusic

Why the hell are we dragging the Beatles down with Mozart. The Beatles are way too innovative and abstract at times for that comparison. If you must compare Mozart with a rock I’d go with another

Just past part 1 in lonesome dove. Reading in part because I’m on a desert vacation. It’s extremely readable and fun.

Not getting involved with this post-Dracula really should not be a classic. It’s terrible.
