Random thoughts

Things I thought to myself lately:

-"Pessimism" by Joshua Dienstag might have been the most important book I read during my college years. I ran into him yesterday.

-Pop radio: Why is the word "rubbers" (in reference to condoms) censored in Eminem's song "Crack a Bottle", but the words "condoms" is not censored when Asher Roth's song "I Love College" plays? I find this puzzling, and of course, do not condone censoring the slang "rubbers". Safe sex, please.

-Why are L.A. progressives who spent their lives working in community development, non-profit sector, coaltion building, etc, all up in arms and concerned about my willingness to go out to a dance club located in a low-income, mostly immigrant neighborhood?

-That girl Sophia. She's up and coming.
