What I’m reading: June 26:
- Up All Night With Amy Winehouse : Rolling Stone - Still horrifying, fascinating, etc.
- Book Review - ‘American Nerd,’ by Benjamin Nugent - NYTimes.com - Not a good review, which sucks, I was looking forward to this. Also, no mention of Nugent’s girlfriend, who’s not a bad score for a self-described nerd.
- Hercules and Love Affair - Party Titans, Updating the Sound of Disco - NYTimes.com
- The FADER - Eley Kishimoto’s Oversized World - Eley Kishimoto put out this fall collection (2004? 2003?) of puffy sleeves and skirts and oversized prints that all looked like cake toppings. I loved it. Nice to see what they’re doing now.
- Flickr: The Steampunk Fashion Pool - Also obsessed with steampunk fashion (adult goths? Larpers? what?)
- The Political Scene: One Angry Man: The New Yorker - Part of my continuing obsession with MSNBC. Average countdown viewer is 59, though, so it’s also part of my continuing rapid aging.
- I Choose My Choice!

What I’m reading: June 23:
- The New Republic: Postcards from Nowhere
- David Foster Wallace - Commencement Speech at Kenyon University - Oddly sweet.
- The Great Lil Wayne Debate: Is Tha Carter III A Classic? - I think this done, completed thing that has been released can be willed into classic-status, though the phenomenon itself has (largely) been discredited.
- The Saint Laurent Funeral - The New York Times - President Sarkozy went to Saint Laurent’s funeral. His wife was a model, but still–imagine heads of state going to a designer’s funeral here.
- village voice > blogs > Status Ain’t Hood > Ranking the “A Milli” Freestyles - I had no idea, and had to run to YouTube / Hype M because most of Breihan’s links were already down.
