Vindication!
This went well. Comrades and strangers alike told me so. And then there was cake.

What to do, what to do...
I would estimate, if I had to, that my apartment contains something on the order of 1500 hours of media that I have not yet consumed. That's in terms of physical objects: books (hardback and paperback), DVDs (films and TV series), video games for various consoles (PS1, PS2, Gamecube, Wii). Factor in ISOs of PC games (those would be images of the CDs, because storing them as data is more convenient than lugging CDs around) and ROMs (which would be similar data, ripped from old videogame cartridge formats (2600, NES, Genesis, SNES, GBA, etc) and that number skyrockets. And still, corporations keep churning out more of this stuff. ..I wonder what kind of sponsorship deal I could get to start really tacking the load. Nike? Everlast? Craftsman Tools? Are you listening?
Mysteries Revealed!
SOLVED: The crickets get in through the vent/fan unit in the bathroom ceiling that can not be turned on! SOLVED: The mysterious NY phone number (646.308.0915) that calls me thrice a day but never when I'm at liberty to answer belongs to the publication Videography, that would like to give me a free subscription!
SOLVED: The reason, according to a small note slipped into my food, that people admire me (and I had been wondering) is "for being such a charmer!"
SOLVED: You don't really hear anything new from rock supergroup Moxy Früvous these days because they went 'on hiatus!' In the year 2000!
Confidential via Internets
To Abby, from North Carolina by way of San Francisco visiting Los Angeles for almost-free, who quit her job and her home and her old life to have another one, who waited patiently in line for the 7:00PM Sunday free showing of ASSSSCAT on October 21, 2007 at the UCBLA, who could not believe the show was free, who has read the Alienist and wouldn't expect anything less than a raw smoothie and has a red messenger bag with the Full Frame logo upon it: the word was PICARESQUE. (This is a modern-day message in a bottle.)
