    bloody miserable

    I will attest to the therapeutic value of community radio! In fact, I could use a show to fight off some creeping ennui at the moment. Baboon, the first place I check for are university transmitters in the area. Most of them will take DJs who aren't students since many of these stations were...

    The Political Economy of Democracy

    Sorry, I've been very busy since the new academic quarter started, and barely got through Vimothy's homework for me on the other thread... Because I'm such an econ novice, I like to give myself plenty of time to read carefully and think; right now, I've got to devote most of my reading time to...

    Special forces raid on celebrity big brother

    If the "Don't Tase Me Bro" affair here in the U.S. is any indication, expect the "point & laugh" response hammered down your throat by media commentary. This is part of the problem, yes? That the public will accept outrageous state brutality against citizens if they are sufficiently annoying...

    soulja boy- crank that. triumph or tragedy?

    Yup! Just realizing this is hitting the charts across the pond -- this song was the biggest thing all summer and fall, wonder what it'll be like there. I've seen kids as young as 5 doing the dance; I saw a teenager roll up in a car along side a school, open all the windows in the car, and blast...

    soulja boy- crank that. triumph or tragedy?

    :D Petergunn, interesting about the fruityloops connection -- that's part of the appeal, right, that anyone can do a remix, make up a silly dance, and post it on YouTube in an afternoon. There have been several attempts at working the "fan remix" angle (Public Enemy and Nine Inch Nails come to...

    Stealing this at some point! I am about 60% through the book and I am already sensing danger on the horizon. Plenty of kewl factoids though, as befits a rhizomaniac.

    Worst Mistake Never Made

    Interesting... I was reading about the 19th century Oneida sex cult; they practiced "male continence" -- basically holding it in.

    A few things ...

    Ah, well I am by any definition a noob myself... I was using it to mean a lowering in transaction costs, "waste", etc. I thought this was some pun I didn't get for a while... I do not understand your question.
