Received Gary Panter's Jimbo in Purgatory yesterday; it is freaking enormous, almost a foot and a half tall. It's actually really dense reading, and I have only gotten to page 7 so far. I like it a lot so far, but I'm at a disadvantage, having not read Purgatorio yet. When I read the "Jimbo's Inferno" in the late, lamented Jimbo comic book, I had already read the wonderful translation of Dante's Inferno by Robert Pinsky. Between this and the previously mentioned Inferno Test, this has prven to be a very Dante week for me.
Woke up way late today, like embarassingly late. And I'm not embarassed by sleeping in until 1 PM. I guess I should have gone to bed before 7 AM last "night".
I am listening to "I Wish I Could Go Back to College", from the Avenue Q Original Cast Recording. Well, not so much listening as singing along in my strong, rich baritone.
