Media Glutton, March 17, 2008
My latest Media Glutton post is up at Allvoices.com:
he media, I can't stop it. It keeps on coming into my brain and I love it. I was talking with a friend last week who's reading a book designed to inspire creativity. It encourages the reader to try taking a week long media-fast, avoiding all books, movies, TV, and anything else that might smack of the creative so as to give your own mind a chance to expand into the empty territory (or so I suppose). Well, I can see in some theoretical world where that might work, but I'm never going to try it. I'm 99% sure I'd go nuts. I'm 100% sure I'd be bored out of my skull.
Having said that, it was a slightly less media filled week for me. I didn't make it out to the movie theater and I somehow managed to sleep right through going to the Bradentucky Bombers women's roller derby match on Sunday night, which was a bummer, as I always love me some roller derby. But I did manage to catch the first two episodes of HBO's new mini-series, John Adams. And I have to say I'm a little disappointed. I was hoping to be able to cancel my HBO subscription after The Wire ended, and now I'm not going to.
