 discuss [] NY Times: You Listen, You Pay: Post-Napster Music Services The Times reviews three of the label backed online music services. After reading the article, I'm not enthusiastic. I almost think that the labels want these offerings to be a worse choice than purchasing physical cd's. 9:29:37 AM
discuss [] I was watching an episode of Real Sports on HBO last night. Among their reports was a story about gymclass dodgeball. Apparently, there is an increasing movement among schools in this country to ban the game of dodgeball. The rationale is that it is "an excessively violent lesson to be teaching children." I don't even know where to begin reacting to this. I loved dodgeball in gym class as a kid, and I was far from the star athlete of my class. As far as it being an excessively violent lesson, there are plenty of other, more violent, things that kids are exposed to these days. It's a sport, and, win or lose, I think that competitive sports teach kids valuable lessons. It's amazing to me with all the crap kids have to negotiate through in life these days that some fool is using his precious spare time to fight the scourge of dodgeball. 12:19:14 AM
