"When a skunk needs killin'--well, it ain't enough to say a skunk's a skunk"--How the West Was Won.


    Dreamed of waiting to see a spaceship take off for the moon and ending up in the crew; seeing trees on the moon below and pointing out that the moon had no trees; a non-existent Warner Brothers cartoon with a cameo by the CBC's Friendly Giant playing his recorder; wanting to tell Father about it but finding him on the phone with a used-book buyer.


    Baked rye bread.


    Dinner was McDonald's.

    Joined the Introvert Meetup at Danforth Bowl again. (I didn't get any strikes this time.) There was a Japanese guy who bowled like a champ.


    Finished the travel issue of Lapham's Quarterly.


    Saw How the West Was Won yet again, on DVD.  Cheesy, vulgar triumphalism with some odd casting (Gregory Peck as a gambler?), it's a guilty pleasure.
