Finally -- the prayers of discriminating cannibals have been answered!
Hufu -- the "healthy human flesh alternative" has arrived.

Style of the Streets
Picked up this recommendation for The Wooster Collective's website from Utne's weekly webwatch.
The point seems to be a celebration of street art. Lots to look at, though I was particularly drawn to this submission by Adam Neate for some reason.

Whose Socially Constructed Reality Is It Anyway?
This is an intriguing article about The Sims and its social implications, etc. I've only played the gameboy version of Sims in the City, so there's a limit to how intense the game can get.

Remind me to tell you about this theory of mine. I'm still working on it but the gist of it is that laziness is, above all, a symptom of poor re-creational habits/history. And I'm talking about re-creation in the sense of recreating oneself, filling one's soul back up, etc. I'm going for a sort of play hard/work hard thing here. Being lazy isn't the same thing as being tired or being exhausted.

This is the most entertaining email I may have received all year (discounting hate mail of course).
I've been meaning to write a poem based on but just haven't gotten around to it yet. Maybe this will remind me to do so one day when I can't concentrate on what I really should be doing at the time.

Aftermath, Inc. (second draft)
Perceptions muddled on strange swampy plain
where reality and nightmare bleed together
one mind-numbing minor chord
pushed us scrambling for earplugs
As shock waves subsided
an awkward huddle stood shivering
a cluster of rubbed raw nerves exposed
clinging in profound contemplation

Dedicated to all those shaken by the passing funk. Feel it. Know it as it helps you know yourself. And then outgrow it.

In Washington State last fall, 27-year-old Shawna Hughes had her divorce revoked by Superior Court Judge Paul Bastine on the grounds that she was pregnant.
"The judge said he had to make sure the child was legitimate," Hughes told Women's eNews in an interview at her home. "And if I wasn't married, the child was illegitimate." The judge's reasoning was that the fetus Kitty Burbankhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13077761221415239876noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6249700.post-1113499659495938202005-04-14T01:23:00.000-04:002005-04-14T13:27:52.716-04:00

Just what we needed. Yet another reality TV show this one setting visual artists up in competion to become the next Artstar . I like the idea of exposing the art world to anyone with cable TV -- assuming that's where it will air (even though I personally only have antenna reception) but... how may they try to spice things up for ratings and possibly sucuumb to damaging cliches, etc.

I know Dogville has been out forever, but I just got around to watching it the other week. I think it's one of the top 20 important films I've ever seen -- and maybe that's just because I'm a theatre person with a passion for Brecht, but... there you have it. In the follow up readings I did, this quote in particular made some kind of sense.
