While on various server builds and holiday vacation and whatnot, I read and listened to a lot of magazines and radio. I wanted to pass a couple of these along to you just because they interested me.
The first one is a recent This American Life replay that I heard when I was in northern California recently. It is about the impact of our government-sponsored fear and hatred of Muslims mixed with a fundamentalist zealot teacher and how they impacted and insulted a young Muslim girl and her family. Take a listen to Act 1. It will make you question the concept of patriotism and put the lie to the so-called decency behind the Family Values and Compassionate Conservatism crowd.
Texas Highways magazine did a fine job covering photos from the set of Lonesome Dove.
Spirit Magazine, Southwest's airline mag, has a great story on the pinball museum here in town. Give it a here.
