    MOM: Hello?
    ME: Hi, Mother.
    MOM: I can’t hear you; I have sand in my ears.
    ME: Then why did you answer the phone?
    MOM: Call me back in five minutes.


  3. If Wolfgang Tillmans was an American,

    I’m sure his dad would be for Midwestern values; he would be for families; he would be for a firm handshake; he would be for a little awkwards sweet-talking with the waitress at the dinner; he would work at one of those farm owned by a big international corporation that was created from family farms fone defunct. His mom would have once won a beauty context. They would have gotten married after dating a long while. His mom, probably on accound of her beauty crown, would be eager for his dad (and Wolfgang too, beacuse he would have showed up pretty soon) to get some of that American fortune all around her. She would be hopeful. She would be going to get her some.
    At the age of 15, Wolfgang would have heard that the guy next door (a used-camera salesman nobody liked) had dead teenagers in the basement.

  4. Any trouble with pleasure ?

    SB contributor and friend Aaron Schuster will defend his doctoral dissertation:

    “The Trouble With Pleasure: Philosophy and Psychoanalysis”

    on Friday, March 26 at 3pm at The Cardinal Mercier Hall, Hoger Instituut voor Wijsbegeerte, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (BELGIUM).

    No idea if this is a public defense, but I thought we should all know it. Hopefully, Aaron will be then sundered from life, and death will become shy of him.

    For its 3rd issue the intriguing Lurve magazine had the bon goût to feature photographer Cécile Boroletti on their cover. No doubt that the content will make up for that promising introduction!
