I know that I’m supposed to write something insightful here, but I’m just inspired at the moment. As a result, I will simply use The Brimstone Blog for my own shameless self-promotion and let everyone know that the next Chris Skel Un-Happy Hour Acoustic Revival will take place this Friday, November 7 at the Cottage Bar in beautiful Teaneck, New Jersey. The festivities will begin at 5:30 sharp so come by and either celebrate the election of Barack Obama or drown your sorrows in booze because of it! Both are completely acceptable forms of behavior at the Chris Skel Un-Happy Hour Acoustic Revival!

I just finished reading “Blood Meridian” by Cormac McCarthy and I was absolutely floored by the breadth, scope and vision of this book. It is no small wonder that the New York Times recently considered it the third best American novel of the last twenty-five years. After I finished it, I realized I needed to delve deeper into Cormac McCarthy’s body of work and began “The Road” over the weekend. Coincidentally, “The Road” has recently been made into a movie which will be released in November. I hope they don’t screw it up. More on “Blood Meridian” to follow.
