(Or that you recognize it as a valid "cultural artefact," or something.) ^_^<BR/>In any case, comparisons between your writing and that of Jack Kerouac are strictly illustrative and coincidental, and not intended to represent personal opinion, valorization, defamation, anthropomorphization, or any NIED.Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00439558955365251588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8935690.post-64152213417857135512008-05-27T12:05:00.000-07:002008-05-27T12:05:00.000-07:00Hmmmmm.
