In the cover story about Kristen Stewart (of The Twilight Saga, and the forthcoming On The Road, etc) in the new June issue of Elle, on stands now, Stewart is followed around in a bookstore while she shops for new reading material. At one point, the clerk recommends a book of mine to her, apparently: “‘This is a young poet who lives in Portland,’ she says, laying another one on her (Stewart) ‘He’s a surrealist poet, but like, really sincere about it. He’s actually traveling right now with a puppetry troupe. I’ll read the first poem to you…’” Later in the article, Stewart is quoted as saying “All of this shit sounds really good” as she then “takes on the load” and is “ready to bounce” at the checkout line. I’m going to go watch one of her films now maybe.
Happy Memorial Day
Check out my new ride, a 1980 Raleigh Grand Prix. I rescued it and put a bunch of new parts on it. Now I got two bikes, so when you visit me in PDX, we can leave my neighborhood.

My most recent contributions to the game Out for a Smoke at Beulahland. See past results here. If you want me to send you some of Beulahland’s Out for a Smoke coasters, let me know. You could send them back to me and I’d post them and that’d be fun.
