    Abortion

    I generally avoid these arguments... But two points. First, there seems to be an underlying assumption here of the importance of human life in the grand scheme of things. Any question of abortion, for me, hangs on the question of the importance of human life. I tend to see us (humans) as...

    how to deal with ignorance

    as i get older, the only thing i can say ive learned is to pick my battles. when younger, i LOVED to argue. i would try to find things to argue about just for the sake of arguing. many times, this was merely pointless philisophical discussion (the shape of the universe, the roots of...

    What do you do?

    this post has come at a very opportune time for me. for the last 3 years or so, have been working a mundane and pointless desk job. not as bad as i make it sound, since it is for a major private university, and hence there is no one on my back constantly telling me what to do. but, ive grown...

    Canadia... what is wrong with you people?

    i actually like labatts, but not enough to buy it. LOOOOOOVE Fin du Monde, Chambly and Maudit are good too. would you consider there to be a large Beligan influence in the finer beers up there, eh?

    Canadia... what is wrong with you people?

    i know i know. american beer is crap. but, have you checked the prices on beer up there? i mean the price of a microbrew 6 pack could fill up our car with gas. and i dunno the last time a 6 pack was enough beer to take camping. yeah, i guess one of the problems was i had to buy tickets before...

    NYTimes: Why do men lie about sex?

    id like to see a poll. instead of how many partners yadda yadda... how about "if you were going to fudge the number, would it be up or down?" i guess that would depend on whos asking.

    Canadia... what is wrong with you people?

    First of all, your cigarettes cost more than Chicago, and thats an accomplishment. Second, your alcohol costs 5 times as much. It was like $30 or something for a case of Pabst! Anyway, this is about music. I went to the WEMF a bit ago, my first time. It stands for "World Electronic Music...

    105 Bpm

    i sometimes do a whole set at this range. usually 105-115 somewhere in there. and when i do, its to spin a lot of the 90s dance and late 80s electro stuff that is slow. the one name i can pull out off the top of my head is Snap - I got the Power. Its gotta be down there pretty close. Ditto...

    The End of Blair

    Is this "envoy to the mideast" for Blair some sort of ceremonial title? Or will he actually have an important role in the future of the middle east?

    Cool Rainy Summer in the UK

    Chicago has been in the 90s for too damn long. Rain sounds much better than this muggy crap. Speaking of rain, this morning as i was riding my bike to work, it seemed bright and sunny, as far as my eyes could see. Then i started getting a little wet. Then i started getting pretty heavily...

    lilly allen with the specials at glastonbury

    From Wikipedia: So, there in England, youve NEVER referred to them as the English Beat (except maybe this new Wakeling version in the US)? Weird. So all the albums I have that say "The English Beat" on them, will say "The Beat" on them when released in England?

    Forsaken

    From Blackdown's most recent Pitchfork column: Is this "Last Saloon Swagger" coming out on vinyl? Or "Sensei"? Anywhere i can hear either of them?

    lilly allen with the specials at glastonbury

    all this discussion about lilly allen (imo she can be attractive, as Nick Cave said "at a certain angle in a certain light") but what really excited me was the Specials. One of my favorite bands, and while theyre aging, at least theyre still bringing the ska. but whats up with lilly and the...
