    nice find



    that "new" expression for syaing something is great/cool....will never cease to amuse me. :P


    that said, great read!
    others have been culling info from it elsewhere on the board, first time i saw it in it's entirety. i really like his description/reasons for the fixer, so true.....just wish i liked the song more. and funny, i love, love, love elvis costello.....and yet, johnny guitar is one of my lest fave tunes on backspacer, i hear no costello in it, at all. odd how that all is. however, great to hear some thoughts direct from ed, love just breathe and his comments about it fit perfectly, yeeeaaaaa.....and unthought known, very cool! and hell, hanging out having late night drinks with ed, catherine keener.....THAT would be amazing!
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    I'd like to know what that book was that inspired Unthought Known. I did a little google search, but there are a handful of references. oh well.
    Pick up my debut novel here on amazon: Jonny Bails Floatin (in paperback) (also available on Kindle for $2.99)
