I entered early enough during the Against the Day read....and have been overposting massively since about 6 months in
because the community of readers became a second home. All that THAT reveals I accept. I tell myself I MUST post
this 'n that, how self-deluded is that?
Sorry for boring and annoying so many, so often.

I joined in 1919. I first picked up a Chums of Chance book in a
back-row seat at an IWW rally in 1910. My skull was fractured in a
scuffle with some Pinkertons and I spent a few years bumming around
trying to form a union of the unemployed, until I was drafted in 1915
and sent to France. I read the entire Chums series in the trenches,
the illustrated versions. The AEF took their time about demobilizing
me, and I came back to my home town shellshocked in the midst of the
flu epidemic. Luckily I lived next door to a homeopath who diluted a
cure for me. At loose ends, I took up beekeeping - and then I
discovered the Pynchon List...
