In Which Girls Relate To Billy Madison Too You Know

Mar 23, 2009, 5:05am This Recording
In Which Girls Relate To Billy Madison Too You Know I Love You, Man by Molly Lambert I Love You, Man Wr/Dir: John Hamburg 2009 Critics were split on I Love You, Man and so was the crowd I went with. Half thought it was funny (if not memorable) and inoffensive and the other half thought it was bland and misogynistic. I remember a similar argument after Knocked Up where a female friend defended Leslie Mann's character's actions against a guy arguing that Paul Rudd's husband character [...]

Mar 20, 2009, 11:00am This Recording
In Which It Ends Not With A Whimper But With A Bang Top Ten Battlestar Galactica Moments by Jessica Gold Haralson And so it frakking ends. Seven years after Ronald Moore and David Eick transmogrified a cheesy late '70s space opera into a naturalistic speculative-fiction masterpiece, Battlestar Galactica ends with a bang - literally - on tonight's series finale, "Daybreak Part Two." We're crying into our octagonal beer steins and wringing our replica Starbuck dog tags in despair, but we're happy that a show that wrestled international terrorism, torture, [...]

In Which We Join The Dharma Initiative Crank Dat Lost by Dick Cheney Winston Churchill tried to spend most of each day in bed. He took his meals there, read the newspaper there. He was a man like any other. Getting name-checked on last night's Lost was the finest moment of his life after death. Never trust a man who thinks reading is a waste of time: Jack Shepard clearly isn't aware of how common illiteracy is among island populations when he chastises LaFleur [...]

In Which We Provide The Recommended Amount of Canadian Content A Generation of Canadian Media Culture by Melanie Strong Up here, where the secretive and unassuming Canadians live and breed, generations have been raised on Saturday morning cartoons and after dinner sitcoms. In that, myself and my fellow Canucks are no different than any other Westernized country. In fact, much of our collective cultural consciousness has been permanently altered by the broadcasted American stations to which wee all tune in. Our childhoods and our childrens' hoods are [...]

In Which We Are Watching What Happened To Us It Was So Real There For Awhile by Alex Carnevale Watchmen dir. Zack Snyder American history begins in 1776, predated slightly by the discovery of barbarism. Most cultures bask in their refinement and sophistication. Americans have a love-hate affair with the idea of being brutes. Since we are ignorant of other history not our own, we tend to think of ourselves as more powerful and destructive than we really were. [...]

In Which We Have Had It With Those Little Versions of Ourselves from an issue of Granta magazine in the mid-1990s The Case Against Babies by Joy Williams Babies, babies, babies. There's a plague of babies. Too many rabbits or elephants or mustangs or swans brings out the myxomatosis, the culling guns, the sterility drugs, the scientific brigade of egg smashers. Other species can 'strain their environments' or 'overrun their range' or clash with their human 'neighbours', but human babies are always welcome at [...]

I came out of the L Train in Bedford yesterday, and five people in consecutive order came to ask me where to go. Lucy set up a sign that said 'Information'.

The squares display vivid possibility, actualized by the writing beneath them, poems that are far more than captions. Possibility, in fact, is the prevailing sentiment I'm left with; there [...]
