FTR.
- The Average Joe 2 finale did not, in fact, change my life.
- Brandon has taken to wearing a black ski mask with an orange NBC 10 headband (one of the set we won through our Providence Winter Olympics exploits the other night). I wish I had a picture of this masterful ensemble, which might be politely called a "mindfuck." It's one part suburban housewife, one part TV news reporter, one part Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, three parts Hamas, and a dash of Ulster Volunteer Force. Truly frightening.
- Can anyone out there in the blogosphere send Ellen advice about how to circumvent Chinese government firewalls and gain access to Blogger URLs? I can't rest easy thinking that state repression may actually be more powerful than the 'sphere.

not a bad idea. would the xml version of the blogspot blogs be blocked?
I, on the other hand, am strangely comforted that state repression may be more powerful than the internet. It is probably just the repressed luddite in me, but, as Chris Owens recently pointed out, there is something romantically modern about certain forms of state repression and dictatorships for which we have a bit of (false) nostalgia.
