Clear Channel stoops to a new low

Tuesday, May 31st, 2005

As found from WFMU’s Beware of the Blog… Radio broadcasts from the NE Ohio area have been interrupted what what seems like pirate radio broadcasts advertising Radio Free Ohio. Their website used to include diatribes about other local stations, including those owned by Clear Channel.
The kicker? Radio Free Ohio’s IP shows that it [...]

Red Hat Society

Monday, May 30th, 2005

While in New Orleans last week, we saw a contingent of the Red Hat Society having cafe au lait and beignets at Cafe du Monde. They looked fabulous. I was jealous. I want to join. Of course, since I am under 50 I would have to wear a pink hat and [...]

When you see something like that, when you see someone exposed like that, it’s an element of voyeurism which is thrilling through its anonymity. The problem arises when you come to the conclusion that it’s not so anonymous. Not only is there a real person behind the pained words, but it’s someone you [...]

Guts

Friday, May 27th, 2005

I just read “Guts” by Chuck Palahniuk. I think that was probably the grossest thing I’ve ever read. He claims that 67 people have fainted at various functions around the world where he has read it out loud. I think it’s possible. It’s x-rated and medically disgusting. Just in case [...]
