Noam Chomsky on Freedom of Expression
If we don’t believe in freedom of expression for people we despise, we don’t believe in it at all.

The Walking Dead
In keeping with my New Year’s resolution to read a book a week, I finally caught up on The Walking Dead…and by “caught up” I mean I devoured the 22 collections and the most recent issues like a fucking herd of zombies.
From the Princeton Tiger, 1949
This is not very interesting
But if
You have read this far already
You will
Probably
Read as far as this:
And still
Not really accomplishing
Anything at all
You might
Even read on
Which brings you to
The line you are reading now
And after all that you are still
Probably dumb enough to keep
Right on making
A dope of yourself
By reading
As far down
The page as this.

The B-52's in Concert
I always wanted to see the B-52’s in their early years. My first big push into really getting into all the Athens bands was from, incredibly, my church organist. Without him, I would have never been introduced to B-52’s, Pylon, and REM. He also turned me on to the Violent Femmes, The Ramones, Galaxie 500, Robyn Hitchcock, and so much more. Hard to think about all the stuff I would have missed out on otherwise.
