Frank,
I am open to anything, but I think 911 went down just as advertised.
I think it would be more comforting to many to think that it was all planned by some powerful cabal, at least that way the world would seem more orderly.

Loving Dear Courtney. The amazing vicious/sweet/magical/solid world of innocence.
PS
Have you read that book yet?
Have you listed to the Swans “freedom” yet?
I look forward to listening to this episode on the way home. Is it OK to right a comment before I listen to the show? If I promise to go listen to it before I write this in the future?
Also
A few weeks ago we were kinda talking, or was I just listening to you and thinking in my head? Anyway, in regards to “Google-it!” and the death of wonder, the death of wondering, the death of asking someone, What do you think this meant or means, the death of casual wonder, the death of the unique world of knowledge that access to the net has created, specifically in most cases WIKIPEDIA, who are a bunch of asshats really, but in any case,
it is almost illegal to wonder about things in the company of others, people have no patience for it anymore, look it up they’ll tell you. no. I don’t want to look it up. I want to share a moment with another human being and just wonder about it for a second. I want to enjoy the shared conversation that this wonder will generate, I want to take a mental trip with another soul and communicate something real, something more real than a few cobbled together pieces of trivia that some asshat and his online encyclopedia deem worthy, I want to share something real with another being! I hope people will one day be allowed to wonder about things again.
Anyway, Dear Frank, please talk about this letter on your show, I miss you, my dog ran around like crazy, we like him, but that was before he got ate’n up, anyway i hope you have a great birthday.
