“Over the weekend, the Happy Fun-Time® Company released several thousand advance copies of its new line of children’s toys, the Fightin’ 43rd Inaction Figures, which feature a new, innovative design. The action figures appear to be highly configurable, but actually are made of stone and are completely immobile. Each figure comes complete with a written set of self-contradictory talking points and specialized sensors that will alert the Department of Homeland Security if the figure is in any way defaced, altered, mutilated or broken. Sales begin next week at gas stations across the country. Proceeds of sales are donated to the Big Oil Executive Management Golden Parachute Fund.”

Profile: i write things. sometimes not too poorly, even. i photograph things. i don't capture them, but i render how the appeared to me, or perhaps how i might have seen them if i'd been looking in a different way. i don't believe in finalities, and new beginnings are old hat with me. i am not what i appear to be, or even what i think i am. i am, in a nutshell, a nut. eat me, or feed me to an elephant.
