Infinite Regret

I just read David Foster Wallace's 2005 commencement speech at Kenyon College. Hot damn. Why did we get stuck with McCain for my graduation (who recycled a speech he gave once before and once after) when such brilliant orators walk among us?

This might be enough to make me tackle Infinite Jest again, although my pleasure reading has been supremely compromised by the lack of subway commuting and available time. Must fix that.

That was a beautiful speech. And, btw, I read it on the subway. Teared up around 34th street
