An attempt by Sen. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma to eliminate all arts and museum funding from the bill was defeated."

(this is from the most recent issue of New Yorker, but I'm wondering if it's just a new translation of a story with a similar title in Cosmicomics? -- speaking of Cosmicomics, if you'd like to listen to Salmon Rushdie talk about that book, click here.)

Fantastic post.
I just read Capitalism: A Very Special Delirium. It was my first experience with Deleuze. I'm now very, very excited to read A Thousand Plateaus.
I remember the creatures I created when I was young. The thought of them reminds me of how creativity slows as one ages...
Thanks, Ken.
Let me know when you start reading 1000 Ps, I'd like to hear your thoughts.
