Slog - Comments on Dept of Truth http://slog.thestranger.com/2006/10/dept_of_truth 1. Last night, I saw mockumentary, the dance/video/music spectacular by locust at On the Boards. Because I have friends in the show, I'll leave the opining to others. But I will say this: It is loud. It is energetic. And it settles the long-standing debate about whether zombies are capable of love. (They are.) 2. During intermission, someone pointed out that my profile of Genius Award-winner Jennifer Zeyl contains an embarrassing factual error: "WET mounted the first full version of [Crave], Sarah Kane's experimental play, which had been directed all over the world as a chamber piece to be read,...

Why would I want to buy a CD when I have no idea what the hell it is? It's not like the idea of people handing out free CDs is completely unheard of (hell, the music press and radio are completely sustained by the practice).

Sorry, I just needed to get that off my chest, because I am too chicken to say anything when it happens in real life.

Day before yesterday a guy either promoting Greenpeace or Save the Children by Westlake was trying to get my attention/stop me by shouting come talk to the black man repeatedly in lesser volumes as I approached, of course. But instead ot trying to make me feel guilty for not stopping/talking/or giving because I was on a schedule/tired/poor/suspicious ... it became a skewed racial encounter.

I want to be able to wear a shirt that says No Soliciting so that I can sue anyone that speaks to me. Unfortunately that would just illicit far more inappropriate comments of an entirely different nature.
