Hourglass is Chicago's very own "superhero tap dance opera"! Awesome! . . .kind of. I don't know if you can call something an opera if it's "told without spoken dialogue, but with narrative paragraphs flashed on a screen and giant scenery boards turned like pages of an oversize comic." Anyway, go check out some Chicago tap in hopes we can get a bit more of this sweet sweet superhero tap dance opera. Because, hey, it was a sequel so lets see if it can get enough steam to complete the trilogy!
Well, august 2008 will probably go down as the slowest bluntest month to date (see, you might think that we all have broken arms [except pimpernel] but really, its just me. your other contributors have fully functioning extremities, and are just lazy as dirt.) I have been spending a whole lotta time on the 'ol 'puter, but its been on this page, the NY Craft Beer Week site I designed. It's up and running, and quite impressive, if I may say so. Not just the design/functionality, but the event itself is huge. Literally crap-loads of beers, breweries, and bars participating. Any NY readers should definitely consider going. Everything takes me 3x-5x times longer then it should which is why I've only been working on that.
anyway, here's some stuff to gander at.
ignore the authors captions, they're not funny. the images are though. check out this weird academic-ish article about reggae. cause the drastics is in it. huh?
so livejournal has a really shitty rip off of blogger's "post secret". it's called "secretpost". how original. anyway, i found this and it made me hate angst more than ever. grow up kid.
Detroit is an interesting town ... must watch until 3min mark
