About Me
- Name: Dr. S
- Location: Gambier, Ohio, United States
Annie Dillard could have been writing about me when she said (of herself), "I like the slants of light; I'm a collector." Or Willem de Kooning: "I'm like a slipping glimpser." And don't forget Brenda Ueland: "I learned that you should feel when writing, not like Lord Byron on a mountain top, but like a child stringing beads in kindergarten--happy, absorbed and quietly putting one bead on after another." But the Beastie Boys might have said it best: "When it comes to panache, I can't be beat." There's a reason I wear a ring that says Badass.

- The escalator's broken heart.
- Sung in stone.
- With witness I say this.
- Rain in morning, fog in night, rain in late night.
- Free advertising for my beloved Hem.
- In praise of imperfection.
- A new Frankenstein.

Hmm -- were these pictures taken by Robert Palmer (accompanied, of course, by identical women dressed as meteorological events)?
Why must you always jest, when I'm trying to Be Profound and Create Great Meaning?
In my house we called Robert Palmer's video women the Pantyhose Girls.
I only jest when you try to Be Profound and Create Great Meaning by invoking Robert Palmer and his Pantyhose Girls.
Pantyhose aside (ahem), the photographs are simply gorgeous. The photo of the dew-sodden blades is especially lovely.
I did not invoke Robert Palmer! That was you!
