I started a new blog featuring real-life bozos who’ve responded to my various Roommate Wanted ads over the years and the reasons why they were barred from stepping foot into my apartment: Your Future Roommate - Check it out and pass along.

In Washington on a business trip. It’s nice down here.
#11 of 52 Books in 52 Weeks - Nowhere Man - By: Aleksandar Hemon | Really nice prose. So-so on the story-telling. A loose assembly of narratives about a guy pushed to the marginalia by the Bosnian war and other displacing events. I’d like to read his more recent novel, Lazarus Project, at some point.
#10 of 52 Books in 52 Weeks - The Strain - By: Guillermo del Toro | Each vampire book or tv show or movie that comes out now cherry picks a different set of rules that their vampires must live by. The ones here are of the mindless zombie Nazi vampire variety, which makes them nowhere near as interesting as the True Blood, Twilight, or Anne Rice vampires. One element not seen in the others is that the characters here all appear to be dealing with various degrees of retardation. This is a dumb book which reads like a dumb screenplay.
