Alan Moore on his snake god worship.

Note to self and Kim: start growing a gnarly beard. NOW.

Kidding, kidding. Maybe.

Allusive updates:

We are doing baby steps.

I am in JAPAN.

Mission: find a scanner without getting killed.

P.S. Japan now gives me the extra psychological pressure of having to finish what I have started or else COMMITTING SEPPUKU.

Identity

Spiderman was inspired by a fly on a wall. The lasso of truth was conceived by the inventor of the polygraph. Anything can inspire a good story.

An indignant anecdote from our good friend J-Lo led to Asian Girl Posse ("-talking shit in front of me like I can't understand Canto- them and their Asian Girl Posse need to just step.") I actually stopped paying attention to the story because I couldn't get my mind off of the phrase Asian Girl Posse. The name conjured up so many images in my head- a Korean woman drinking tea while breaking a man's neck between her legs, a tiny Viet girl powersliding her souped up Integra into a wall of thugs, and lots of other vaguely ethnic looking girls doing vaguely cliched action movie things.

A story can come from a strange beginning, but a good story can grow and change beyond those first thoughts into something new and interesting. I'm hoping that AGP will do just that.
