Today:
--I ate the tastiest grapefruit I've ever had in my life. The label says "California Ruby Red," which doesn't tell me who grew it.
--Am listening to Cold Flamez "Kiss Me Miss Me Lick Me" ("Thanks for the sex, it was great, I admit it"), while reading Jeff Weiss's jerkin' story in August 6th's L.A. Weekly ("We're Jerkin' (starring the New Boyz, J-Hawk, and Pink Dollaz)").
--Finally reading Sam Ubl's term paper on Robert Christgau.
--Sampling Jonathan Bradley's blogs: here and here and here (he writes about Vanessa Carlton's "Nolita Fairytale"!) and here.
--Will Buffy, if I have time.
EDIT: I also like this comment of mine to Jonathan's post here:
Well, I think societies also share - if that's the right word - conflicts and arguments and misunderstandings. E.g., black-white relations can play a large role in a society, but a factor in that relationship is that people often don't share meanings (and sometimes even shape their meanings to be misunderstood by others of a different class or social group). But our noticing some particular, characteristic misunderstandings in one society might be one way we distinguish that society from other societies, that are shaped by different misunderstandings.
