Brilliant post by Malachy about the program he and i were in together among other things. A quote: "It's an openness that lead to more interesting conversation about the work and what it was than we currently get from the critics in most of the press where an aesthetic opinion is being pushed."

on genius

even more from patrick very interesting. my thought now is that one woman's genius is another woman's fool. i could name some people i think are geniuses. but would we all agree? maybe in hindsight. who is a genius alive right now? anyone?

cool post here. artists take note.

URGENT IMMEDIATELY

Dear Friend,

I am the prince of a country you have never heard of.
I am very rich but I have some problem involving
politics I won't go into and you won't understand
because you are American and very gullible (and
ignorant).

Please send me your social security number. We are
looking for someone in America to give a lot of money
to. It is not illegal but we are not in America and
for some reason need to be for some reason.

Hurry. The fate of my country hangs in the balance.
I need to send you lots of money. What is your bank
account number?

Felicitations,

Please Hurry,

Ruler of Small But Rich Country

P.S. you like to purchase also some Viagra? or penny
stocks? they are going up. Just like the last one I
told you about.

Ken Levine on Young Frankenstein

"Unless Barbra Streisand is playing Frau Blucher and the kids from SPRING AWAKENING appear and have real sex with YOU on stage, $450 seems excessive."

What is "The Defenestration of Prague"? And how is it
seventeen steps removed from "Castration Anxiety"?
Wikipedia knows. In this brave new world of instant
gratification where the internet can live in your
pocket, one group of writers has created a
mini-marathon of short plays that surf the wikipedia
wave through seventeen related entries.
