Not the usual embarrassing small town boosterism, but the
true quill , as extracted from the shelves of the Womack Library. Ongoing. And sorely needed.

...and all that other exciting we-got-your-'pocalypse-right-here shit aside, Stephen Hume makes a case that reminds me strongly of how believing you can win the lottery and believing you'll be killed by terrorists have so very much in common.

Mr. Womack transfers his blogging skilz to his new workplace without losing any ludic edge .

I now have such a massive jones to revisit Barcelona. Few things are as delightful as a friend visiting a place you deeply love, and getting it, absolutely.

Lovely city.



Lovely wife.




A perfect trip.




By and large.




Later today I'll have my first blog entry up at my new venue <a href="true">Orbit Books</a>, exploring the wonderful world of science fiction and etcetera.




And, back to Barcelona at the first opportunity.
For now, it's been a pleasure and as always, gracious thanks to Mr. G.

The greatest market in Europe.




The ham what am.




C'THULHU P'TAGHN!!!! IAAAAAA!!!!!!




23 kinds of eggs.




"Hey hey" said Johan Kugelberg, "all four stomachs!"




Our first lunch, at the market: morcilla with sweet onions, baby octopi in olive oil, Damm dark beer.

Not in picture (eaten): sardines (delicious).

This is what we were seeing in Kutna Hora, Czech Republic, by the way.


We'll return to Barcelona shortly.

When we were outside Prague in 2007, visiting the little town of Kutna Hora.

We demurred.









Work on Sagrada Familia has continued during the near-ninety years since Gaudi stepped into the path of a streetcar, and is planned to continue for many more years to come.



Unfortunately.
