Oh jesus...um...like...this Ahab guy is totally fucknuts but nobody seems to notice. Crew pledges to join his quest to kill Moby Dick, especially when he tosses in some prize money. Story of Ahab losing his leg, going batshit. Moby yadda yadda yadda legendary white whale yadda yadda evil incarnate. Ahab totally projecting etc etc etc. White people good except those scary albinos. Big animals vicious and scary for taking exception to humans trying to kill them. Big white animals scarier. Booga booga.

Also, the crew have a dancin' and fightin' night which Ishmael chooses to render in script form. Music by Pip the cabin boy and his rapidly disintegrating tambourine.

Nono! It's cool. Reading it is much more enoyable than writing about it.

Like you said. Between Ann and Laurie Anderson, I feel like I have Moby Dick covered...

I'm impressed. You've voluntarily gotten further in "Moby Dreadful" then I did when assigned the damn thing.

I'm not sure if I'm proud of you or if we should up your medication.

Hmmm

I'm almost tempted to go and see if I can find my copy in the mess of boxes downstairs. I can't remember if I brought it with me or if it's buried in a mess of boxes at the parental units' abode.

Oh, no! We cannot have Ann being lonely. I couldn't find it last night but I will stop by the bookstore and pick up a copy. :)

I think I am now actually tempted to READ this book for the first time ever. Maybe I shall.
