you are the queen of rock

I have had a soft spot in my heart for Chuck Klosterman ever since he inscribed my copy of Fargo Rock City: "Chris - you are the queen of rock." Flattery will get you everywhere. I won the essay collection/ memoir in a Little Gray Book competition at Galapagos that involved Klosterman, Darin Strauss, and some kind of birthday mystery. Here, he gives away the keys to the kingdom. If you don't see your favorite rock critic for the next couple of weeks, s/he is off making up a new lexicon.
