More talks with Jeff Graham lately, and I think we're close to something. I don't know exactly what we'll agree to, but as soon as we shake hands on it you can be sure that it will be good for everyone involved.
Also, when writing about movies in my last post, I forgot to mention that we have our own resident movie star in the RGNC. I won't mention any names, but he can be seen in a recently completed motion picture starring the likes of Billy Bob Thornton and Mr. Harry Dean Stanton, not to mention making a contribution to the soundtrack...So, resident actor, the floor is open and we hope to hear from you soon about this latest adventure in which you have once again flirted with thumbing your nose at the RGNC "no fame" policy!
Was researching the subject of "cultural geography" while online today. This is a topic which I have apparently been unwittingly pursuing during the many hundreds of thousands of miles I logged in the "aimless wandering" category. Still, even when I was just out driving around in the country, or in small towns like Lincoln, Missouri, or Humboldt, Kansas (hometown of MLB legend Walter "Big Train" Johnson) or wherever, I was always studying the lay of the land or how a town was set up and where the drug store was related to the hardware store, or the county courthouse design, or where the old business district was (around the square) compared to the new business strip where the Sonic and the O'Reilly parts store is (often on a new by-pass), or where the trailer park is and where do the people work at to make ends meet since there is no big employer in the area, stuff like that. This is a blast to do, and now I find out that this is a line of work that has a name; "cultural geographer". I wonder if the guys who do that stuff have an expense account to pay for all the gas they use when they're out researching/driving around? They probably all have some kind of teaching job at a college that offers classes in such things. Maybe if I make my expertise known and offer my services, I could be hired as a guest lecturer to come and discuss the subtle nuances of driving around and checking stuff out.
