You'll only get better by experimenting with computers, and there's no great chance you can irreversibly break it, right? (i could be very wrong) I attribute most of the familiarity I have with computers today to fucking up my parents' computer when I was younger trying to download an album. Fixing that made me not afraid of files and permissions and whatnot

I was trying to explain this idea (vis-a-vis respectability politics) to someone earlier and couldn't, but you just nailed it! This is awesomely put

Wow thanks for the reply! That's a fantastic bibliography, I'll have to chase some of those names down.
Say hello to your dog for me!

What do you think of your contemporary Iraq veteran authors? I read Kevin Powers' "The Yellow Birds" a few years ago and found it absolutely mesmerizing. Growing up in the midst of all this, I was pretty unaware as to the realities, so I've been trying to learn more and more about the Bush war years. Your book's been on my list since I saw it in a magazine a few weeks ago - cheers!
