It's been over a month since I've made a post here. So it's high time I catch up on a few things.
CONFIDENTIAL pre-release show was a huge success. there was a great crowd. Thank you to every one who came out. If you weren't able to come, and you'd like a copy of the special edition CD drop me a comment and I'll let you know how to get one.
Nashville is still boring, but not as boring as it was. I've got my Nashville weekend behind me for the month anyway. This weekend I'll be in Detroit with the Anthropologist. We're going to see Tiger Army (And that doesn't have anything to do with the Detroit Tigers. It's a post-hardcore psychobilly band from California, and I am real excited about the show.) And we're going to the River Rouge Ford plant where Walter Reuther got beat down by thugs from the "Service Department."
Speaking of Walter Reuther, I've been working on a piece about the United Auto Workers. Look for that to be up on the Leader sometime soon.
I've done a little volunteering for the Barack Obama campaign. I used to be fired up for Obama, now I'm not so sure. But I still think he's the best choice among the front runners.
No Logo by Naomi Klein. This book is a real eye opener when it comes to understanding how multi-national corporations do business. I'm not sure that I go along with all of her conclusions and I sure don't think that "ad-jamming" is going to make a hell of a lot of difference to our increasingly branded world. But it is an important book all the same. Look for a post on No Logo, coming soon to the Leader.
How did South Florida get invited to the Big East instead of Memphis? And would Memphis be a top 10 football team now if they had?

South Florida got invited because they are in Tampa and the Big East wanted the Tampa market and wanted to get into Florida after losing Miami. Memphis does not have the talent base to draw from that South Florida does, so no they wouldn't be a top ten team. They'd be better though.
I forgot about Miami moving to the ACC. That makes sense then.
That's why I am here.
