ERMX Jumps Into Huge Advanced Nitride Super Conductors!

EntreMetrix Inc. (ERMX)
$0.16

ERMX has just announced it involvement in a joint venture to manufacture
Advanced Nitride Devices. These have Military application as well as
Energy Super Conductors. This takes ERMX to a whole new level. Google
"Nitride Devices" and get on ERMX first thing Monday!

I found it honest and fascinating, and related so much to her feelings
and fears. The short story is not our preferred form but D'Ambrosio's
eight brilliant stories are almost enough to convert us. The Paris
Review Interviews, I by The Paris Review and Philip Gourevitch Scanning
our Recommended selections, one might conclude we're addicted to
interviews, and one would be correct. I mean, it's not like it's pink,
or is called the "Estrogen" prize or something.

And, more importantly, it's a gorgeously written book. Eliot, Ernest
Hemingway, Jorge Luis Borges, Dorothy Parker, Robert Gottlieb  and
others? Same thing with the Lambda award.
And given the unquestionable inequalities that permeate our society, and
our literary culture, it's a way to keep these wonderful voices from
being lost.

The Elegant Variation: Katherine Taylor has been sitting at her desk too
long. The Elegant Variation: Emoticontrary.
Everything else is just mud.

In untrained or unrestrained hands, a thesaurus can be dangerous.
"Non-racers," he writes.
And to make absolutely certain readers know that this is a girl book,
we're going to give you a big award and slap a Girl Writer sticker on
every copy. And, more importantly, it's a gorgeously written book.

I mean, it's not like it's pink, or is called the "Estrogen" prize or
something.
But increasingly, I find otherwise bright and well-adjusted people send
emoticon-peppered emails. I mean, it's not like it's pink, or is called
the "Estrogen" prize or something.
They're useful for communicating emotion when the writing fails.
Max Morden has returned to the vacation spot of his youth as he grieves
the death of his wife. Same thing with the Lambda award.
Heti's Ticknor would be insufferable if he weren't so funny, and in the
end, the black humor brings a leavening poignancy to this brief tale.
John, Elizabeth Koch, Mark Sarvas:  keep your old phone messages and
worn-out undershirts.

According to this, emoticons are an acceptable element of modern
communication. How about smug and indulgent.

I'm sure Mark is a much better cyclist than I am tennis player. I can't
think of any more annoying or disgusting internet trend than that.

I am not a total fogey.

well, certainly since we've started this blog.

coroner Quirke, a Banvillean creation on par with Alex Cleave and
Freddie Montgomery.
