A story that just won’t die: the James Frey debacle

Articles on James Frey and his fake memoir A Million Little Pieces have been pouring in non-stop since The Smoking Gun exposed him earlier this month. I can understand the extensive coverage on gossip pages like Gawker, but on CNN? What the fuck?

Naturally, I bought the book.

Must… see… Belle & Sebastian

Belle & Sebastian is coming to Toronto, and The New Pornographers is the opening act. OMG, OMG, I think I am going to pass out.

I am going to buy, like, as many ticket as possible, OMG, OMG, and the door time is 7:30p.m., which means the show will start around 10p.m., which means the show will end around 11:30p.m., which means… fuck, I don’t think I can convince anyone to drive me there.

Paul Martin to visit UW tommorow

According to The Globe, Paul Martin will be at UW tommorow morning or early afternoon.

Please, somebody do something outrageous; it’s beeen a year and half since the last time something even remotely anarchistic happened, and we’re barely holding on to the idea of an university at this point (what’s an university without self-righteous and probably pretentious assholes super-sexy rebels?).
