Yale revisited

Wednesday, 11 October 2006

Actually, just visiting for the first time, but mentioning it here again as a reminder:

I'll be reading, signing, and possibly gargling with pages from Prisoner of Trebekistan at the Yale bookstore at 3 pm today (Wednesday). This will be followed at 4 pm by something called a Master's Tea, which I believe is either a chat for and with the students or a bizarre underground initiation ceremony involving skulls, crumpets, and oaths of fealty to Cthulu.

I think it's just tea, though.

The Yale Record guys, especially Mike Gerber, set this up pretty much out of the blue. My thanks!

Update, Thursday: the whole thing was a fabulous experience. Yale seemed like the last place on earth a working-class lefty like me might feel comfortable, but the folks there couldn't have been more down-to-earth or fun to hang out with. Might even have some video to share if I get a minute. My thanks to all involved.

Hail Cthulu!
