Got an email from a well known (some would say infamous) poet who is promoting a slam. The subject includes the line “Poetry Slams are for the Grown and Sexy!”

I guess I made the right decision getting out, huh? I’ll cop to grown, but sexy??? Not in a million fucking years.

Unless, of course, you go with the idea that everyone is sexy in their own way…but somehow, I think that interpretation isn’t what the promoter is going for.

I’m going to be trimming the list substantially, I think, over the next few days — nothing personal, just a refocusing of sorts. If you find yourself gone and want to be back on, let me know.

From the judge on “The People’s Court:”

“What, you don’t like Febreze? What kind of American are you that you don’t like Febreze?”
