David neglect you. He say me can write instead. Me just do painting in cave, so keyboard get very dirty now. Me hope he don't mind.
David happy Obama president now, but Boris not. Me liked John. Me like his version of Tyrannosaurus Rex. He can scare terrorist away that way. Booga-booga. Don't you think?
Boris like Flight of Conchords very much. So happy new season begin. Me laugh lagoon water out nose when they sing this song last Sunday. Now I think about it, Jemaine look little like me. If I shave beard and keep sideburns, it will be spitting image.
Speaking music, David's friend give David acoustic guitar. When he play remind me of birds choking on bird seed. One day me smash guitar with club. It will be best sound come from that thing.
New book by David out now. Licorice on cover look good. So good I start chewing on it. Don't taste like licorice. Taste like book. Read excerpt here.
But back to me. What I like. New album by Animal Collective is very good. And the Wrens make music again finally. When last album come out it was Ice Age. Ha ha! Me make funny.

Non sequiturs are in. I can't wait to see this. Giant squid have eyes as large as basketballs. The cover of my second YA novel, out early next year, looks like this. I'm currently reading this. Abraham Lincoln carried letters and bills in his stovepipe hat. Lisa cut her pinkie on one of these. The video for No Age's "Keechie" is mesmerizing, transcendent, poetic, and just plain beautiful. Here is a snapshot of Diego running for cover after that earthquake we had last month. The odds of being struck by lightning in your lifetime is 1 in 3,000. This is a great wine.
