@arthurwyatt at that time, he was pretty hard to find. He seemed to be using the trip as a test. After that he surfaced a bit. now, not shy. – 12:28 AM GMT

“But these two experiences had only made him more acutely aware of the special danger of time-travel,” – Blish, TOS adaptations, 1969. LOL. – 04:29 AM GMT

@arthurwyatt awesome, I always wondered what the backstory was on her working the farm. Loved her 70s stuff in Analog as a kid. – 10:15 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt well done! – 10:36 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt you know where this should lead? Other tie-in novels. Are there Mad Men tie-in novels? – 10:39 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt @LeavittAlone hopefully under the pen name “Mr The_Whelk” with an author pic in a 1940s army uniform – 10:48 PM GMT

word to the wise: yr wacky teenage haircuts may give you pause should you ever attempt to assemble a story-of photo album for yr birth mom. – 01:43 AM GMT
I will further note, it is the first and hopefully only time I have felt pause given with regard to my teen decisions, because I am a laser. – 01:44 AM GMT
the arrow of time moves forward and light bends only to gravity. my birth mom: a source of gravity. – 01:45 AM GMT

Well, for all my shock based on the similar ages between me and JG, Kim Thompson is the man I mourn today. I barely know JG’s work. – 01:59 AM GMT
I don’t have an issue with it, I’ve enjoyed what I know of it. But Kim Thompson devoted his life to bringing a face of European pop culture – 02:01 AM GMT

@imontheradio like, “Foo, a badass, said ‘X,'” – 03:10 AM GMT
@hell0jed we drove the 101 south from Crescent City to Oakland and the 1 north from Laguna Beach to Half Moon Bay last August. Amazing. – 04:46 AM GMT
@hell0jed Our biggest error was trying to go from the Oregon cutoff north of Shasta over to Crescent City at dusk. – 04:47 AM GMT
@hell0jed for four hours as the dark comes in I had to drive as quickly as possible past trees the size of city blocks, no gaping! Bad move. – 04:49 AM GMT
@hell0jed and finally get your ass out here, not incidentally. – 04:50 AM GMT
@arthurwyatt CHIP – 11:15 PM GMT
@HalfMoonBayGolf just out of LA I north bd saw a friend had updated their FB status to note they were south bd on 1 out of the Bay Area – 11:18 PM GMT
@HalfMoonBayGolf I posted back; we just managed to find each other in Santa Barbara for lunch. Hadn’t seen her in 20 years. Met her family! – 11:20 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt a) Dhalgren is my all-time favorite book b) did i ever tell you about the Hugo House reading where I met him? – 11:21 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt for good reason. it was me entreé to Joyce, too. it is a moebius strip of a book. it is soooo good. – 11:27 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt no one has ever written about American city life with such rigor and beauty and it’s possible no one ever will again – 11:28 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt that’s awesome, I had no idea he’d done that. his autobio is like a key that unlocks Dhalgren, “The Motion of Light in Water” – 11:30 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt re HH reading. He used to keep a very low profile. No pix on his seventies books. There was mystery re his ethnicity. – 11:31 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt maybe I’m dense. that wikipedia article doesn’t draw a line for me. Black man, SF, NYC, postmodernism? Will google a bit. – 11:35 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt some (not illuminating) discussion indicating maybe “yes,” from their perspective: groups.google.com/forum/m/#!topi… – 11:37 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt from my perspective, without seeing the show, there’s no way that was intended to be him. For so many reasons. – 11:38 PM GMT
@kcfennessy they pop up from under the waves, pop the shot, and dive away – 11:48 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt right, HH reading. So people knew he was black by this point. But no idea what he looked like. – 11:50 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt So I sat down next to this portly bearded leather daddy, along with my party. – 11:51 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt we chatted among ourselves. Major topics: “what does he look like?” and “BEST SF AUTHOR EVAR SQUEEE” – 11:52 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt so The Stranger dude who was hosting intros the man, and, as you have already figured out, the beardy leatherman stands up. – 11:54 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt This was pre-publication of HOGG, which he proceeded to regale us with excerpts of. He’s a trickster. I will always love him. – 11:56 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt Sadly for me I was too mortified to follow up that night. There’s no chance he doesn’t remember it though. He must have hurt. – 11:57 PM GMT
@arthurwyatt due to stifled chortling I mean. I went on and on. He is broad beamed, so as I ranted, we were in actual physical contact. – 11:59 PM GMT

TNG, “Half a Life.” Terrific. First episode by the guy that wrote “Inner Light,” the best of all the episodes of all the series. – 03:26 AM GMT
First appearance by Michelle Forbes, apparently as Cindy Lou Who. – 03:27 AM GMT
Barrett uses her relatively recent loss of Roddenberry throughout the episode to good effect. – 03:29 AM GMT

should unpack my overall distanced stance with regard to DC/Marvel underwear beings. I’m just not as interested in superhero stuff as SF. – 11:13 PM GMT
but what distinguishes the two? well, obviously, Marvel or DC. And the medium. But I love the medium. – 11:14 PM GMT
My besties in comix? Walt Kelly and the Hernandez bros. attn @xaimeh et al. Stan, Steve D, Bob K, S&S? Well, I, what, respect them. – 11:17 PM GMT

in essence, I got the real deal from Kelly and watered-down Aaron Goldsmith BS from Marvel and DC. Then I was mentored by @fantagraphics … – 11:28 PM GMT
… at the exact same time my interest in punk rock and anti-corporatist entrepeneurship peaked. So the big question will always be: – 11:29 PM GMT
Why is Star Trek’s multimedia material, schlock, fan-produced foolishness, and the occasional genuine gem, so much more compelling to me? – 11:31 PM GMT
I can’t actually answer this question, I think. Sorry to hear the Superman movie is disappointing. I’m unlikely to notice. Kal-El’s no Kirk. – 11:33 PM GMT
