The Quotable Camper English

I was just listening to a Podcast of the Commonwealth Club's lecture about Google Books, where you can search texts or parts of texts online. Naturally I decided to Google myself there.

They don't know that my book exists. Nice. But they do have other peoples' books that I've been in. I once wrote an introduction to nightlife in San Francisco for the Lonely Planet Guides (edition now out of print). I also had a poem from my calendar quoted in a book on regional American English called How we Talk.

Then I found a third book I didn't know I was in. It's called
Reeling in the Years, Gay Men's Perspectives on Aging and Ageism. They quoted briefly from a fictional article I wrote for Instinct Magazine years ago that was me pretending to wake up in the body of a circuit boy. I was funnier then.

Anyway, I don't have a point, I just noticed that. Go me.
