For those of us who would like to indulge in elitist giggle-fits:
First, read the
nominations for this year's
Harvey Awards.
Then read the fanboy responses in
this thread on
Newsarama about Mark Waid declining his best writer nomination.
All due respect to Mr. Waid, but how he and Ron Marz even ended up in the best writer category along with Daniel Clowes, Chris Ware, and Alan Moore is baffling to me.
Ah, the new issue of
America's Dreaming just arrived in the mail... it looks great, Sophie.
I've been listening to
"Share The Dream" by Taylor Savvy over and over, and it's only starting to feel a bit unhealthy. It's essentially an early 80s roller-rink dance pop song, with the mantra "me and my dad share the same dream of still being in school (but it's a nightmare!)". That's it. It's that simple. I maintain that it is a work of pop genius. I am very jealous of the lucky
Barbelith folks who got to see him play with Peaches this weekend in London. I really wish that I could have tagged along...
