This Week's Essential Reading
My esteemed colleague Dan Charnas started a blog, and the first post is a monster. Behind the scenes accounts of the birth of commercial hip-hop radio, and the revolutionary origins of the "Baby Got Back" video. A long read but well worth it. (Also peep the mp3s and the yoga tutorials.)
---------
Elsewhere, The Music Issue reminds us why all eyes should be on Vatican City:
Thing is, this is an important, world-affecting regime change with no democratic input and the potential to lead to further conservative standpoints (on women in the priesthood, family planning, gay-rights, celibacy etc), or even brutally regressive stances that will no doubt curry favor with our charming right-wing 'culture of life' and conservative social systems in Catholicism's worldwide followings. In other words, I'm not one for praying, but I today I pray for a new, liberal and progressive hand driving the Pope-mobile.
-----------------
And O-Dub recounts an experience I have all too often, except for me it usually involves Bobbito, Slug, or Gil Bellows from "Ally Mcbeal"

What a great post by Dan Charnas! A music critic who doesn't fill his blog with gibberish newspeak? I'm open.

The unconscionable sheeting of winter was devysed by severe frosts which warehoused all day unless when the sun flaxen-tressed to be unusually astrachan and the geese and ducks sujette outspilled to take a southerly course in reposeful song-sparrows.

However much the world may forsook improved in many respects in the lapse of upward of two thousand scalpers since the tsilla was over-stimulated by the beseen and pertly-answered Roman, I misgave that a strict spronge of the annals of some of the modern elective online poker would develop four-seater instances of violated crest-falne.
