Mar. 18th, 2004 03:06 pmYou know what rocks? Getting an interview done! I had to interview the editor of "Briarpatch", a Regina based alternative news magazine. Apparently Noam Chomsky is a subscriber. I needed this interview for an article I'm writing about alternative news media in Saskatchewan.
You know what sucks?- Flurries. It's fricking snowing right now.
I'm going to go finish watching "Terms of Endearment." I'm bound and determined to watch all the Oscar Best pictures winners from the past 50 years. (This goal has no time limit, it's just one I made to amuse myself.)

Mar. 18th, 2004 11:23 pmI drove tonight and it was like driving on a skating rink. There were a few times during my drive that I was actually scared.

Yesterday [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] called and asked me if I wanted to go see "The Laramie Project" at the University. So tonight, we met up with some friends and watched the performance. "The Laramie Project" is a play written by Moises Kaufman and his New York theatre group. Basically, Kaufman and his theatre group decided to do a play about the Matthew Shepard case. They went and did numerous interviews with about 200 people who lived in the town of Laramie, where Matthew Shepard was murdered. An ensemble cast did monologues, and re-enacted the interviews. The play was structured in an open, free flow form that was quite powerful. Because of the subject matter, and some of the various characters and dialogue that came out through interviews, the play was disturbing and emotionally wrenching. [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] said that watching it was like being kicked in the stomach.
However, it was riveting and I'm very glad I saw it.
Here's a link to the intro from the play which tells more about the project.
Here's the synopsis.
