I study philosophy at the University full-time these days, spending quite a few days in the library of humanities. There be dragons, Latin bolstering nerds and frustrated art students lingering for decades like dusty old clothing.. And free stuff! The library strives to keep a current collection of literary material, and regularly place out-of-circulation books […]

"In der Strafkolonie" by Franz Kafka
In my German 1300 course I am currently writing an essay on interpretations of Franz Kafka’s In der Strafkolonie (In The Penal Colony). As a philosopher I naturally research Kafka like I do other meaningful material, with the supposition of truth. And there is no ambiguity in this particular work of Kafka, it can only […]

Truckin' zine on hiatus until January!
My latest Truckin’ story is absolutely awesome! In fact, it’s so awesome that dr. Pauly has decided to put it on the shelves until JANUARY! Seriously though, I can understand the need for a break. Even without all the volunteer work behind Truckin’ both Pauly and Nicky a.k.a
Truckin' June 2011, Vol. 10, Issue 6: Happy 9 Years of Truckin!
Yeah, that’s right! The decade old online rag of world-weary travellers’ tales has just turned 9 years old, and I’m celebrating tonight in Oslo by drinking Red Stripe beer (a Jamaican brew). The site was created by Pauly, edited by Change100 (big shout-out!) and written by some 120 alcoholics with typewriters. I have not published […]
Jack Tripper Stole My Dog! by Pauly McGuire
Since as long as I can remember (2002-2003 or something) Pauly has been writing on a book called Jack Tripper Stole My Dog!, and yesterday he could finally announce that it’s finally available for purchase! As a writer myself I can only imagine the anguish and pain bound to those leather bindings (paper hardback, really), […]
Truckin' January 2011, Vol. 10, Issue 1: What's the Last 3 Topics?
With a Happy New Year comes another edition of Truckin’! Keen readers will have noticed that we’re entering the 10th year of Truckin’, champagne all around! I mean, it depends on how you count it, like Wikipedia turns 10 with regards to 10 years completed. Truckin’ on the other hand is celebrating its coming of […]
Truckin' December 2010, Vol. 9, Issue 12: Call me on Christmas!
This month I’ve got a little concept story for you which is work-related. I’m sure most of you will be familiar with it however, I’m sorry to say. I wish a merry Christmas to all the readers and writers of Truckin’ and look forward to Twenty-Eleven. Esteemed author of Lost Vegas mr. Pauly says: The […]
Truckin' November 2010, Vol. 9, Issue 11: Not who you think it is
Spread the love, people. Spread it like a venereal disease. Spread it far and wide, honey. Spread it like money. Spread it on a sandwich – just above the lil’ layer of home-churned butter, right below the egg and spam and egg and spam. Spread it like spam. spread it like the Wu Tang clan. […]
Truckin' October 2010: Who Screwed Jonny Hughes in High School?
The October issue of Truckin’ takes a break from the lowest common denominator, i.e. me, to introduce new & fresh talent, the innocent and beautiful angel tears scarred down on e-paper, akin to that of the very gospel itself. But not to worry, I’ll be back next month! Pauly writes: The October issue marks the […]
