Rob Wilco: Why don't you do something to take your mind off of stuff? Satchel Pooch: I am, I'm reading a book. But I don't really follow the plot. The first, like, half of it is just a sea of characters and the second half of it is just one location after the other. It's very confusing. It's almost done and I'm still waiting for something to happen! Rob Wilco: Nothing happens in that book, Satchel. Satchel Pooch: What, post-modern? Rob Wilco: No. Phone book.

well….. after all, most books have either a strong plot, or characters, or a sense of time and place. most don’t really have all 3

Someone stuffed a new local phone book in the ‘paper box’ under the mailbox this year, I guess since the paper box is always empty…? I stuffed the phone book in the wood stove, a few pages at a time…
