FREQUENTER LIST 2006: VINCE LiCATA
I don’t like haiku.
Never have and never will.
So I won’t write one.
1) www.opiummagazine.com (Humor-lit site, where I’ve published several pieces).
2) www.yankeepotroast.org (Who doesn’t love a good potroast? Great humor site).
3) spillwayreview.com (a beautiful online literary mag from New Orleans, where I’ve also published).
4) www.pindeldyboz.com (if you don’t know pindeldyboz yet, then you don’t know squat about online literary magazines).
5) www.apeculture.com/movies/swscience.htm (a set of articles on “The Science of Star Wars” that is absolutely a hoot!).
6) www.toromagazine.ca/home.html (Proving that male Canadians can be just as pruriently juvenille as male Americans).
7) www.zulkey.com/greatest.html (Claire Zulkey is very funny and must write at least four pieces a day, judging by this ongoing list of her pubs).
www.piaze.com/stories.html (Pia Z. Ehrhardt is the uncontested master of
the online short-short story).
9) www.lablit.com/home (a kissin’ cousin of Science Creative Quarterly).
10) www.biology.lsu.edu/labpages/licatalab/index.htm (a great place to get a Ph.D.).

Vince LiCata is a biochemist in the Department of Biological Sciences at the Louisiana State University. His laboratory studies protein structure and function. He owns two Britney Spears CDs, but one of them is an illegal copy given to him by one of his students. He routinely gives out more than 25% A’s in his General Biochemistry and Biophysical Chemistry courses, yet is considered a hard-ass. He is reasonably sure that if Britney Spears got in a fight with Jessica Simpson, that BS would crack JS like a little twig.
