hay hey raymi how are you
i am addicted to just two blogs on the net – lame old Torontoist and hip happenin RtMinx. i saw a crazy gunfight on ossington eaaaaaarly sat. morning, like i was 10 feet from a blasting gun, only one on the street it was insane i made eye contact with the gunman. anyways, i submitted a thingy about it to torontoist and was just re-reading it, and it hit me, your writing, reading your blog so often, has probably had a big influence on my own style – because i admire your writing – i can see the influence, its tangible. i figured you might be interested in it, maybe not, but here is the thing . so now im thinking that probably the biggest influences on my style (not that my style is any good, or even exists) are fitzgerald, nabokov, bukowski, thompson, and now raymi. Raymi and the big boys. which is actually really interesting considering im a dude and know next to nothing about female literature of any kind. as always, good work.

p.s I’m banned from your comments, I don’t know why particularly, but I probably left an extremely offensive joke-comment when wasted or something. so yeah i am banned, but i still read you and i feel no animosity toward u or nething.
so it’s nothing to you that yer banned but i ban people only when they go too far and zing the fuck out of me for no reason i
i get a lot of abuse
i “inspire” a lot of people and these same people are no different from me yet i have this gay ass blog that all of toronto reads so im the retard out on display
it’s almost not worth it
im glad u werent shot
i might blog your email
i feel like shit right now
xo
i didn’t mean its nothing to me that i’m banned; its significant, but what can i do. you def. don’t owe me anything. i would ask that you not blog my email, but its your call. i couldn’t have written anything hateful in your comments – even if i was drunk, i still like the blog and you, so it isn’t like i could have let anything slip – i think i said something prob. pretty offensive which could have been percieved as a mean zing in your direction, i do that sometimes, stupid. i probably shouldn’t have added that little p.s – but i probably shouldn’t have sent anything, did it on impulse. i just wanted to send some props. i’m not some internet weirdo. i hope i’m not some internet weirdo haha… sigh.
