On the alienation front, [livejournal.com profile] lesser_celery has now posted the full TOC for Not One of Us #40, while [livejournal.com profile] asakiyume offers up (with sea-drowned sculptures) a review! As they say, you don't have to take my word for it.

On the other alienation front—Paul Newman?

Whoa.

Or something like that. Coincidence is a funny thing. One of my mother's friends here in town turned out to be not only a third cousin, but to be emailing with one of my uncles about a book he's supposedly writing. Since we've no common family history in New England at all, that was pretty amusing.

My brother says he used to race at Lime Rock, although he never personally saw him.

So I've heard as well.

Your brother's into racing? Interesting. I used to do kung fu with a couple of guys who were into that. I can't remember if they just went to Lime Rock a lot to watch, or if they actually did some racing. (Do they race motorcycles there, or only cars? They were both... not bikers, in the the Hell's Angels sense, but into motorcycling.)
