Too Hot to Go To Bed

Tomorrow's puzzle will be getting to a 4 p.m. interview in North Van in the heat, on transit, wearing a suit, and not turning into a puddle.

I will  cross that bridge when I come to it (literally, since I'll be going over the Lions Gate.)

For now, the "15 books" meme:

Rules: Don't take too long to think about it. Fifteen books you've read that will always stick with you. They don't have to be the greatest books you've ever read, just the ones that left a lasting impression. First fifteen you can recall in no more than 15 minutes.

More From 1992

Cathedral Place (left) has only just replaced the old Art-Deco glory of the Medical Arts Building as a monument of fibreglass, post-Modern crap (can you tell I don't like that building?) There is no Olympic countdown clock in front of the VAG. Eaton's is still Canadian and spelled with capital letters. There are no towers in Yaletown and the Expo '86 site is still a vacant wasteland while Concord Pacific and the provincial government argue over who should pay for the site remediation. And if you look at False Creek at the far right of the picture you can just make out a white smudge that is the ill-fated McBarge, which now floats derelict in the Burrard Inlet. Oddly enough I happen to own a complete set of blueprints to the McBarge.


Niether a Leader nor a Follower

This new gig is mind-numbing. I at least have a couple of things to do today, but nothing taxing. On the one hand it is easy money, too easy really - it feels like theft. But on the other hand it feels like a tiny murder. I'm going to lose three months of my life here. I felt kind a desperate last night to do something and found to my horror that after spending three days in an almost bodhisatva-like state of perfect blankness I couldn't get my mind sparked up enough to come up with anything.
