Maybe a conference will deadline my ass into writing a coherent project. Unfortunately, the U of Pennsylvania call-for-papers archive doesn't work very well (and by "very well" I mean "at all"), and reading through hundreds of calls-for-papers for the relevant search terms, say "tucson" or at least "warmer than madison in january" doesn't appeal very much.

What's indecent proposal about?

Does it involve a graduate student who applies for a doctoral grant but is told by the applications committee that his project is, well, untenable because it involves all sorts of unrealistic research?

no. more in the same vein as secretary,
about power and relationships. robert redford offers woody harrelson one million dollars to sleep with his wife (demi moore). Hijinks ensue.

I couldn't bear to watch the end, it annoyed me so much. But perhaps it would be a good movie for us to watch together the next time you're in town.
When do you come into town next?
