I decided to change up the site. It was boring. It's still boring, but at least it's different.

Kurt Vonnegut is dead. I'm pretty sad about it. I've gotten over the "incident". He was mean to me once. I met him after he gave a lecture in Boston. The gist of his lecture was how we all needed to be nice to each other. After he was done, I went around the side of the church where the lecture was given to get my bike. He was sitting on a bench smoking a Pall Mall. I don't normally get too star-struck, or bother people in the public eye, but his work had meant so much to me, and I just wanted to let him know that, nothing more. As I approached, he looked up and me and said, "I don't want to talk to you.". So much for being nice to each other. I was devastated. I've since gotten over it. I figure he was having a bad day. Maybe he had painful gas, or a rash or something. Who knows? Anyway, I'll miss him. He was an outstanding writer.
