Better Than Friday - 187
Gooood Evening everyone, how are you?
Just posted a review of Hemingway's "The Sun Also Rises".
Amazing. Flawless. Still fresh.
It's 97 years young.
Hope you have a great weekend, thanks a bunch for your continued support.
1. Martin Amis - The War Against Cliche: Essays and Reviews 1971-2000
I think Rob Doyle said this one was good. Definitely gotta read it.
2. The Dogs - The Price of My Sins
Best rock I've heard in a minute.
3. Leonard Cohen on Preparing for Death
Hell of a thing to be that lucid at the end.
Recently watched 'Exotica' for the first time featuring this great Leonard Cohen song.
4. I can't unsee this photo of Hemingway
It's the greatest reminder of remembering not to take yourself seriously.
Speaking of...
How is this real.
I mean, I wish him the best of course but this is crazy.
Saw a Tampa Bay Ray on our walk - Here's a screenshot from the video. So rad.
I'll post it on Instagram.

Just started reading The war against cliche (my first Amis) its rather good.
GJ, I've started likewise. And I agree, it's rather good. Surprisingly sparky.
Everybody Knows is such a great song, as are so many of Leonard Cohen's songs. Another favorite of mine is 'In My Secret Life'. So many of his songs are covered, but I thought I'd mention Don Henley did a cover of Everybody Knows that shows up on his Greatest Hits album 'Actual Miles'.
I love rays, but don't want to think about the Houellebeq video. Creepy.
