The Cloud Lobby


Hey, remember when McNeil took that picture of a weird cloud? Maybe we can name it! Right now, the Cloud Appreciation Society is lobbying for the official naming of a previously unclassified kind of cloud. I found out from therumpus.net. And a little more "clicking" revealed that the Cloud Appreciation Society has a cloud chat room where you can chat about clouds! I have a piece coming out in THE BELIEVER magazine in a couple of months. I can't talk about it yet, but - SPOILER ALERT! - it involves clouds and I feel kind of upset because I hate it when reality intrudes upon and indeed surpasses my fanciful concoctions, you know how that is.
