Just a quick note while we're sitting here in the flashy, futuristicSeattle Public Library (an announcement just sounded that all computerswill be logged in out in fifteen minutes and the library will close inthirty).  I love libraries.  I want to a librarian.  ALibrarian of the Future.

You know what, this is not going to be an interesting post-- I'm justtoo elated to put in the work to make it worthwhile-- so instead ofcluttering the internet and draining my gentle readers' time, I'm goingto do the more noble thing and just bow out.

Posts have been too sparse this weekend, especially given the heftycollection of hours I've spent at the computer lately.  I've beentrying to get my new website (hissycat.com) in gear.  Once that isup and running, I'll get my postings on a regular, industriousschedule.  And I will write something fabulous and bloggy latertoday.  Maybe tomorrow.

About a Boy

I don't hate Nick McDonell because he's young, or good-looking, or privileged, or impeccably connected, or all the rest ["The Charmed Life of Nick McDonell," by Ariel Levy, August 22]. McDonell's problem is an inability to admit the possibility that the world is not an extension of the New York City private-school scene. Without a grounding self-critical impulse, McDonell will never be more than a second-rate chronicler of urban ennui.

Hey, what's that facebook pic of? All I see is a teeny little thumbnail of a head veiled by smoke.

It's the kid who wrote that letter to New York Magazine. I took his picture off of thefacebook.com


He's a student at Princeton.


You've got an interesting picture on thefacebook.com, by the way

i see. care to reveal your own facebook identity, gwyn-gwyn? if you don't want to post it, you always just email me: joanna@hissycat.com i mean, whatever. now that i'm a bit curious.

I am not Jacob Savage. I just thought the picture of his head surrounded by bong smoke was funny for some reason. Maybe the letter seems too cogent for a pothead?

You could always do a search on thefacebook.com for Gwyneth Paltrow but you won't find me. I have a perfectly ordinary profile on that website.
