the other version was the Americanized version with baseball instead of footy......Jimmy Fallon was in it and instead of Arsenal, it's about the Boston Red Sox....... it was pretty disappointing. I am more of a baseball fan these days - so I am not opposed to making it about baseball. It just wasn't very good.

Happy Birthday! (okay, so this is an old picture - I took it at Highbury in like 2001) Spurs are Scum!!

that is such a great book! (though both movie treatments of it are crap)

This was a decent book. I love the socio/political analysis. However, the details about labor organizing gets a little tiresome and dry. The scholarship is invaluable, though a journal article with a synthesis of the material and analysis would be a much better read. I did search academic journals to see if I could find one - but, I did not. However, Kelly does have a number of interesting articles out there. If African American and/or labor history interests you - you'd enjoy it. and up next..... update* I highly recommend this book

whew. now we can stop panicking about them not being in the Sunday mailer.

that is hilarious - and very close to home. I had that Darth Vader poster that is shown there - and I, too, "met" Darth Vader - at a JC Penny's!! I was terrified and cried and mom had to take me home before I even got up to him. I still remember hiding in one of those circular racks of clothes, peering out and seeing him across the room - so large and terrifying.

Want Two was pretty insufferable......I think there was maybe one song on there that I liked. He should have made one album out of those two. It seems all of his albums have gems and flops. I can't wait to hear this.

I loved living in Nashville and was bummed when I had to move.

Thanks - it is the first of three, which will be spread out over the course of the next few months - African American History (post-emancipation), Historical Theory and Cuban History. I do love Langston Hughes. Sadly, I will be moving on tomorrow - as posted - Alabama Communists in the 1930's.

It's decent - it's a good, quick comprehensive read. Though if you already know a lot about the era, it might not tell you much more than you already know. I was reading When Harlem Was in Vogue but switched over to this one - because I wanted something that put the era in more of a socio/political context - and this one had a little more analysis on that front. I just went and ordered a Charles W. Chesnutt book after reading the chapter on literary foundations. I am fascinated/disgusted by the "plantation tradition" and "lost cause" nostalgia of white writing in the late 19th/early 20th

Fred Phelps? Are you mixing up your wingnut religious nutjobs again? I dislike the new album intensely - but I hate Fred Phelps more.

yeah, I don't recall anyone saying that he "deserved" to die or had wished death upon him - maybe I missed something.
