Mar. 27th, 2009 10:46 pm1. I *might* be doing freelance for the local paper, through a lead my brother gave me. I haven't done any journalistic writing since high school and don't have anything on-hand. Let's see if I can pull some stuff together over the weekend and see what happens. (And also that I don't strangle my brother breathing down my neck about doing it in the process.)
2. Subject from a Christian Right spam email - "Fox's 'Family Guy' goes too far; file a complaint with the FCC". They're just now getting outraged about "Family Guy"? Where've they been the past few years?
3. First sentence of a review for The Last Dickens by Matthew Pearl - "A rousing yarn of opium, book pirating, murder most foul, man-on-man biting and other shenanigans - and that's just for starters."
4. I just found out that Peter Furler, lead singer of the newsboys, is leaving the band. I understand why - he's been with the band since its inception years and years ago, but it's still weird thinking of him as not being part of the band. And they announced that Michael Tait's going to be taking his place. I think he's a good musical choice, but at the same time, he was a part of dc Talk, so it's kind of like finding out the lead singer of Pearl Jam is leaving and the lead singer of Aerosmith is taking over. I'm going to miss Peter.
