Slog - Comments on Reading Tonight http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/04/reading_tonight_43 Poetry Slam and three other events going on today, including a discussion about religion and politics, which is sure to end well. First, at Elliott Bay Book Company, Jeff Gordiner is reading from his book X Saves the World: How Generation X Got the Shaft and Can Still Keep Everything from Sucking. I just got an e-mail from Stranger critic Travis Nichols assuring me that, even though this is a book about Generation X, it is "interesting and witty." Travis has done some great work for us, and I hope that he'll do more work for the books section...

"Religionnn-ah! Politics and religionnn-ah! Fight electric Tory Christ!"

Or something.

Is the second 'religious' supposed to be 'politcal'? Or am I missing something...
