We saw the aforementioned Ms. Vowell's reading at the U of M Bookstore this evening. It was every bit as hilarious as I thought it would be. I definitely need to pick up her new book. She went around the country to sites connected with the assassinations of Presidents Lincoln, Garfield, and McKinley basically as a vacation. What's not to like about that?
In the book (and this is one of the sections she read), she mentions the Oneida Community. Apparently, it started out as a Christian free-love commune, then went into the business of making dinnerware. That bit of knowledge is going to make my next trip to the outlet mall very interesting indeed.
