or Re: Stoner Movies?
I had forgotten how trippy University Film Programs can be...
a new print of Women in the Dunes, would qualify--tho' if I recall
correctly, that one bent my mind without the help of chemicals...
Guadi's Sagrida Familia is truly fantastic

Other list business
V.
GR
VL/MD
CoL49
SL--I like the Introduction best and Under the Rose
I read V. first, so that may influence the order, I am a west coaster
and a child of the 60's so Vineland sounds good to my ear, I remember
how excited I was to read it, just because I felt "in" --I didnt' have
to work as hard to get it
Reading: __Cloud Atlas__, David Mitchell (thx to whomever on the list
recommended...) David Mitchells writing grabbed me immediately in a way
I hadn't been engaged in narrative for ages...I haven't finished it
because I don't want to.
I did finish Black Swan Green, which I enjoyed, but not with the same
glee as Cloud Atlas, and since I rarely read "coming of age" stories
finding adolescence or the edges of adolescence about as interesting a
brushing teeth...
Also reading "__A Problem From Hell" America in the Age of Genocide__,
Samantha Power and__ Shake Hands with the Devil__, , Lt Gen Romeo Dallaire
and a pretty little book about Afghanistan by one of Brue Chatwin's
traveling companions __The Light Garden of the Angel King__ by Peter
Levi (Title from an inscription on a 16th century Afghan king's tomb
"This highway of archangels, this theatre of heaven, the light garden of
the godforgiven angel king...)
