I don't get to speak much to anyone or that sort of thing

My e-mail is down! Last known to have worked a little after six this morning; after that point, nothing. If anything requires my urgent attention, please send it to my other address or contact me by some other means. I'll edit this post when I am in proper communication with the outside world again. That's all today needed.

[edit] E-mail restored! Still flickery. I seem to have a lot of Facebook notifications.

In other laments of technology:

TELEPORTER. TELEPORTER, PLEASE. THERE IS A PETER LORRE RETROSPECTIVE AT THE BFI.

Seriously, they're showing a print of Der Verlorene (1951). Mad Love (1935) and The Face Behind the Mask (1941) is a brilliant double feature. I've barely even heard of F.P.1 anwortet nicht (1932).

TELEPORTER.

In other contexts of time travel:

Century-old restaurant menus from New York City. I am less interested in the comparative pricing than in the items available. I feel like egg with tarragon and ox tongue might have come around to being trendy again.

Moral of the story: Steak will always be the most expensive.

Actual moral of the story: 1914 menus were surprisingly frequently MORE interesting and diverse than their modern counterparts. Huh.


I am sorry your email is down.
