So this afternoon I finally had one of those amazing MilliMoments (we should start a community for it.)
I was in Tel Aviv for a colloquium on the peace treaty between Israel and Jordan, because I'm a psycho who's actually interested in this crap. I spent most of the day before the colloquium at the house of my good friend Tal.
At around 12:30ish, I got a phone call from Grima-mun (whom I adore and miss greatly with all my heart). While talking to her, I'm wandering all around Tal's house, and stop by the bookshelf which is filled with several hundred books, most of which are in Hebrew.
In the middle of all the books, however, smack in between an English collection of Mark Twain short stories and a Hebrew novel by Sholom Aleichem, is:
Still Life With Woodpecker, by Tom Robbins.
Naturally, I borrowed it and read it immediately. It's a weird, weird book. But at least now I know who Bernard is.
Also: I NOW HAVE FARSCAPE SEASON THREE, WHICH I WILL WATCH INCESSANTLY OVER THE NEXT TWO DAYS!

"Oh, come on, guys. They're here. They're right here."
"You're perverted."
"No, I'm a guy. Guys dream about stuff like this."
