<p>I like that essay... it's just rather weird.</p>
<p>Eric, your essay is brilliant. Quirky, odd, plain weird...but brilliant. And I love that poem, though The Red Wheelbarrow does have a pull on me as well. </p>
<p>By the way, Eric, cookiemonkey wrote me that she met you at the UChicago send-off! We must have a CC get-together when you arrive on campus. :)</p>
