The disturbing world of online personas...

This is my meez. It's not me. It's my meez. It's an it, not a she.

I guess I haven't written in awhile...

...because we all know what happened in Myanmar. Kind of funny to see how excited I was about the Burmese monks in the post below. Makes me seem a little green and wide-eyed.

Since you might be reading this after seeing my name on a fabulous new blog, I just wanted to give a shout out to all my radio peeps out there. Aforementioned fabulous new blog is an experiment from the NYU Department of Journalism, which doesn't exactly have a radio program, but it does have some wicked new radio equipment in its new building, and lots of students who want to be the next Ira Glass. Some really passionate radio people are making things happen at NYU, with help from this guy, who's running an informal documentary radio club for us. Check it out. I should be posting a piece very soon.

Monks in Action: A Modern Example of Successful Nonviolent Tactics

Haven't written in a long, long time, but if there's anyone out there still reading this, I promise I'm going to start up again as I'm back in NYC.

For now, please click on this NY Times story of Myanmar monks stickin' it to the man:

Hundreds of Buddhist monks marched through rain-washed streets for the third day in Myanmar’s main city yesterday, taking the lead in monthlong protests that the military junta has so far been powerless to contain.

1st Radio Piece: E-Wase

Check out my first radio story, aired last week on KFAI Community Radio in the Twin Cities:

It's a little raw, but it was a good experience putting something of this nature together. The parts where the background sound seem to cut off are spots where one of the tracks' audio levels were set too low. Oops...

So far, so good...

I just started the new blog last week, and already it's getting more buzz than this one ever did... This is what one MSP blogger has to say:

7/25: And speaking of new blogs, METRO's got a hawt new blog, intern Suzanne Pekow's "The Newbie". Even though she's only posted a handful of times, Pekow's blogging frequency already surpasses everyone else on roll.

I also got e-mail from a local TV news personality and another popular local blogger. Keep the praise coming, people!

New Blog

I haven't written in awhile, so who knows if anyone's actually reading this... But for those few loyal hangers-on to the sporadically-written, occasionally interesting life and times of yours truly, you can find me again in a new location: check out my new METRO magazine blog.
