The rain hides my cryin'

Happy May Day! (Grumble-Grumble.) The interminable rain foiled my weekend running plans of course, although it didn’t stop me from making it Brave New Workshop way. Also swung into the Soap Factory (two opposable thumbs up for the 8x8x8 exhibition–they had felt art!) and Theatre in the Round. But I’ll report back on all that later–I mean, I report back on what I feel is worth reporting back on.

As far as today goes, I wouldn’t be a good journalist if I didn’t plug tonight’s lecture by Seth Mnookin (from Vanity Fair, dawg!! I’ve been just lovin’ that magazine as of late–even though I have been obsessively showering ever since “Tom Ford’s Hollywood”-slash-cootie-fest!). In any case, tonight’s event is brought to you by the University of Minnesota’s Silha Center for the Study of Media Ethics and Law, a fine organization. The topic: “The Customer is Always Right? The Assault on Media Impartiality from the Empowered American Consumer.” Not sure I can elaborate on that subject, for fear of pissing off our advertisers (just kidding). It sounds compelling in any case, no?
