I've never even heard of this guy

but apparently, he is the science fiction writer who I most something something...
I am:
Samuel R. "Chip" Delany
Few have had such broad commercial success with aggressively experimental prose techniques.


Which science fiction writer are you?



I was so hoping to be Philip Dick or Stanislaw Lem. But no.

betterAh, after consulting Wikipedia, I have in fact heard of this guy. I tried to read one of his books many years ago, Dhalgren. I thought it sucked. I could not finish it, which is incredibly rare. Ironic, I guess. And I guess I need to try re-reading that book, because the Innertubes told me so. My first impressions are often wrong.

And I've been doing some shooting this afternoon, while Al was at her swim meet. Can you believe Target doesn't sell BBs?!

Obviously I need lots more practice, but I think I could get the job done if necessary.

Target won't even use the word gun. Notice that all water pistols are called "super soakers" or "water throwers" or some other pansy name. They thought we were insane for even mentioning the phrase "cap gun."

Wal-mart has BBS. And cap guns. Yep, Doug is THAT uncle.
