papers I’d like to write
August 19, 2009
I was thinking yesterday about papers I’d like to write someday as I was walking from my wee apt to get some pizza.
First, someday I’d like to write about How Spike became Justin Timberlake. I think it’d be a paper on the rhetoric of Justin Timberlake’s hair and how James Marsters’ hair changed to coincide with the evolution of JT.
I also want to write about the rhetoric and aesthetics of coffee. Not Starbucks, that’s different. But diners and white cups and late night conversations or early mornings. And the word cup, but only pronounced as it is in How the Grinch Stole Christmas when the Grinch gives Cindy Lou Who her cup and sends her to bed.
And love.
But that one is obviously more geared towards self-reflection and pondering the world. James Marsters and JT, however… now that’s something worth sharing.
