  • for your listening pleasure…

    [readermail]Last week, on pamie.com, there was a discussion about men who won’t listen to female singers/bands – which is just stupid. In response, my latest podcast is Women Who Rock, a (rather unimaginatively titled) mix of rock, soul, blues, and jazz tracks by mankind’s better half. Enjoy, Dave[/readermail] Track Listing: Elastica – Connection Pretenders –…

  • last call for the mississippi book drive

    This is the last day to donate to Dewey’s book drive for the Harrison County Library System. I am beyond proud to report that in just over two months, we sent 1835 books, cds and DVDs and over $2700. Thanks to everybody who gave, spread the word, and then came back and gave again. You…

  • This Just In

    [readermail] From: amanda.xxxx@xxxxxx.com Subject: your blog You’re not funny. You are an intolerant, ignorant “ugly American,” and it’s people like you that give the rest of us a bad name.

  • review: EDGE Providence

    “As with Why Girls Are Weird, the story is told in a semi-diary format. And, as with The Odyssey, the main character goes on a hero’s journey of growth and discovery. Okay, that second part is actually true, but I mostly threw it in so I could be the first reviewer to put a ‘chick…
