I think Crate & Barrel exceeds my Grandma's wildest dreams by a good margin. I think her dreams were more like going to J.C. Penney with a credit card!
First off, you can read this blog via RSS feed. Go to the LiveJournal home page to find out how.
And now, a word about its content:
In addition to the usual ruminations of a personal blog, De File features periodic excavations of material from my "files," a revelation sure to disturb anyone who has seen my garage. It's an experiment in integrating past and present, perhaps with a little redemption along the way.
Politics is always on my mind, but rarely explicit here. I’m working on a theory about what personal writing like this does to literary identification and why some people resist its pull so powerfully. But my goal is to make that theory dissolve in my practice, a density in liquid.
You'll note that I have links to blogs not on LiveJournal directly above, as well as assorted websites of note. The blogs I read regularly on LiveJournal itself fall under "FRIENDS" at the top, for those of you unfamiliar with LJ’s workings.
You can write me. I'm "cbertsch" before the circle-a and "comcast.net" after it.
