I like this article about Stan Lee: https://tinyurl.com/DailykosAboutStanLee
That reminds me to recommend the Pulitzer-prize-winning /The Amazing
Adventures of Kavalier and Clay/. It's about the early comic book
industry, the immigrant experience, and it has a real golem in it, /the/
Golem of Prague, as well as Harry Houdini and Salvador Dali.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Amazing_Adventures_of_Kavalier_%26_Clay
And /The Arrival/ by Shaun Tan, an entirely wordless, sepiatone, densely
detailed children's book about fleeing oppression (skyscraper-tall
monster vacuum robots that suck you up through trumpets into their
terrible bags) and traveling to a marvelous new land, and learning the
rules and flora and fauna and flaming kitchen appliances and how to send
for your left-behind family by balloon-kiosk.

IN OTHER NEWS: Tonight's Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio show will be
live /not/ from Fort Bragg, so if you want to talk about your project on
KNYO or read aloud your writing in person, or bring your instrument(s)
and fellow instrumentalists and play a song or a short set, or otherwise
demonstrate your show-and-tell skills...
...Make that /next week/, First Friday, January 5; drop by 325 N.
Franklin, Fort Bragg after 9pm and just barge in. Head for the lighted
room at the back and get my attention. You're never interrupting me; I'm
happy to see you. I have plenty of material, local and otherwise, to
read to fill up the time whether you come or not, so there's no pressure.
But, again, that's /next week/, because tonight I'm doing the show from
Juanita's apartment, not from KNYO. So.
Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio: Every Friday, 9pm to about 4am on
107.7fm KNYO-LP Fort Bragg, and at the same time on 105.1fm KMEC-LP
Ukiah. And anywhere else via http://knyo.org or http://TuneIn.com
Also, p.s., the deadline to email your writing to be read on Memo of the
Air is about 5 or 6pm the night of the show. And it's not even
five-thirty yet. You have a little time yet to get that together for
tonight. Just paste it into a reply to this email, make sure it's going
to me and not to the whole group (unless that's what you want) and press
send.
Plus you can have your very own show on KNYO. Contact Bob Young:
bobb at poetworld.net and express your radiophilic desires. You'll be on
the air before you know it. It's easy and fun. And it's /your right/.
