My tags pretty much describe me, but there's more than words to a person. Let's get to know each other.

i read bukowski\'s poetry & you were right with you
assumption. i enjoyed it incredibly much so. galapagos
is the only book i have read of vonnegut\'s thus far,
but i agree with starting at the ending & working back
from it. vonnegut would tell exactly what was going to
transpire & then explain how, thoroughly. the way he
created outside determining factors that led up to the
ultimate destruction of mankind made me smile. i
had a discussion with a friend about survivor just the
other day. palahniuk revealed that the main character
survived the plane crash, but never wrote it in his
book. the \'tape\' runs out. which is why i hated the
book & why i loved the book.

i must ask, have you been able to read any of
palahniuk\'s work yet? knowing you are a vonnegut fan i
am curious as to how you would compare the two writers
yourself.

north carolina you say? my brother and his wife live in
havelock. his wife is pregnant and he is in iraq. so i
might be moving out there for awhile to help her out. i
am currently living in north bend, oregon. meth
/obesity capital of the world. our county at least.
bah. however, next month i will either be in havelock,
cleveland, portland, seattle, san francisco, or el
paso. choices. and those are only temporary. galapagos
is one of my favorites that vonnegut wrote. palahniuk
and vonnegut are similar in the way that they use
sattire throughout their stories. i love it. i would
suggest survivor, fight club, diary, invisible
monsters, lullaby, choke, and any short stories you can
get your hands on really. haha sorry i cant narrow it
down. lullaby left quite an impression on me though. if
you have seen fight club i would definitely suggest
reading the book. the movie does not even compare!

yes indeed punk is a good genre to keep an ear open
to. my bulletin picture was found
on photobucket actually. it took a great deal
of searching to come across. whoever pieced it together
is quite good at what they do. where are you from?
