In Need of Good Reading Materials

I went to the Terry Library this evening, but alas, it was closed. I suppose I'll just have to continue reading my vast collection of right-wing literature until someone can mold my mind otherwise.

Independent Media Discussion

Bob McChesney is coming to Buffalo to further that effort and all those
who understand the significant connections between an independent media
and authentic democracy will want to hear what he has to say. Because
media are so crucial to the work done in so many areas of progressive
politics, media reform deserves to be everyone's "second issue." Let's
get the media reform campaign in Western New York off to a good start by
generating a big turnout for this event...



Media Critic and Author Robert McChesney will be speaking at Buff State
on Tuesday March 30th @ 7:30 PM in the Bulger Communication Center
North Lecture Hall. Admission is free -- donations to support the Buffalo
Coalition for Progressive Media (BCPM) will be accepted. The event is
sponsored by the Niagara University Communication Studies Department, the
Buffalo State College Communication Dept and the BCPM. Campus guests
can park in any student or faculty parking spot -- parking enforcement
will be suspended for this event.



McChesney is author of eight books including "Corporate Media and the
Threat to Democracy," "Rich Media Poor Democracy: Communication Politics
in Dubious Times," and "Our Media Not Theirs: The Democratic Struggle
Against Corporate Media."

What Keeps You Going

E-Strippers - I'm in existential mode tonight. Just wondering what in particular makes you tick. Friends, family, love, art, music, work, religion/spirituality?

Cool banner

I just noticed the baner image with emily in the window and the estrip street sign. It makes me wonder if she really does wear the bunny suit all of the time.

Walking Home

1:00 AM
Walking down Allen Street alone

A female voice. "Hey.."

Can't be for me. A few minutes later, the voice gets closer. "Hey!"

Oh no. Is it one of those junkies that's going to harrass me?

Footsteps right behind me.

I turn around. It's that cool chick that Flacidness and I played pool with, about a month ago.

"I saw you walking out of the Pink. You looked sad."

"No, just really tired. It's good to see you though."

"You too. You sure you don't want to have a drink?"

"Yeah. I have to get up early."

"Ok. I'll see you around then. Hey - what's the name of that site you were telling me about? I wrote it down but I lost it."

"elmwoodstrip.com"

Flash Class

Paul - I am all for a Flash primer. It's one of those things I could learn on my own, but a class would provide some motivation - something I've been lacking lately.
