As a spectator, I saw three young, unseasoned matadors in Mexico City mutulate three animals. At the time, I was the featured vocalist with Benny Goodman.

I, too, have always felt like the owner of a mis-wired brain. But somehow it works for me in certain contexts. In ohters, I am an entertaining oddball. Thanks for sharing.

I think our journey home is nearing a fork in the road. Will Scott Walker be recalled? So proud of all the citizens of Wisconsin who never gave up and now other states are having second thoughts (Ohio) about what they did in the dead of winter. ALEC and the boilerplate legislation has to be stopped. Rescind Citizens United. Forward! I haven’t forgotten this post. I think our journey home is nearing a fork in the road.

]]> Comment on The Authenticity of Eminem: A Tale of Two Commercials by Lisa http://zgpress.com/?p=341#comment-385 Lisa Thu, 14 Jul 2011 17:32:21 +0000 http://zgpress.com/?p=341#comment-385 Interesting article. I'm from Metro Detroit. Metro Detroiters like Eminem because his mystique and Authenticity combined represent the type of celebrity that a city like Detroit needs. Detroit is not a bling city anywhere on the surface. It's complex and Eminem is a good celeb to represent Detroit because his persona is complex. I like your thoughts on the simulation of real authenticity. I guess when it comes to Detroit, I've bought what he is selling. Interesting article. I’m from Metro Detroit.

I have been away from Wisconsin for 45 years and still refer to it as "down home" when I speak of the small farm I grew up on in Wisconsin. The sense of place is still strong, but the bedrock foundation of common sense for the common good will never leave this dairyman's daughter. I urge everyone to support Wisconsin's recall efforts in any way they can. ONE DAY LONGER, ONE DAY STRONGER. You made my heart weep as I read the words you penned.

However, just as Herr Hitler's joyous little jig in Paris was short lived, this dance will hopefully be a short one as well.
