Defenestration of argot

...or throw the slang out the window.

It appears that we have lost one of our contributors. And I'm losing steam. But.. I must... carry...on.

Lately I've become disturbed by the quality of my vocabulary and grammar. Perhaps the books I've been reading aren't challenging my brain to pick up new words or more refined ways of speaking (Harry Potter...?) I usually end up assimilating types of speech when reading certain books. Beware when I've delved into Dickens. I forswear re-reading Stephen King's Dark Tower series. My gods, the shit I picked up from those tomes. Maybe I need to get into some critical theory, but phlpckack! How dry....

Okay, back to work.

Film screening tonight! Joy!

[in]eloquently,
S
