Cousin Morgan, you will never be an orator.

A brief note of thanks is in order to Scott and Will of The Lecture Series and Corey and Josh of Book Thug Nation for permitting me to speak last night. Though it was sparsely attended and my performance was far from perfect, it was nonetheless an enjoyable experience that all involved seemed to enjoy in some respect. (The comment by one attendee that my lecture was "the scariest lecture he'd ever heard" has not gone unappreciated.) And for anyone who has an affinity for used editions of major and obscure works in all the major genres, I can't recommend Book Thug Nation enough. Anyone in and around the Brooklyn area are encouraged to check it out.

For those who missed the event but are still interested in reading my lecture, "On Perpetuating Our Political Institutions By Way of Our Disassembling and Reassembling of Them," you will certainly have the opportunity as I intend to put together a xeroxed booklet edition of it when time and money allows.
