Breaking News: Nothing is Happening, Dammit.
There. I said it.
Seriously. I've had about enough of this. Jack Thompson isn't making an ass of himself, Uwe Boll is hiding somewhere, no good games are coming out... Not a single Chinese gold farmer has starved to death playing Everquest II in the past month! You want to hear the story of the day in the gaming world? Alliance owns Horde in World of Warcraft.

Downtown At Dusk Photos
Two words: Awe-Some!
Downtown At Dusk was a phenomenal success -- so much so that they ran out of crawfish and had to get more -- and the bar at Underground 119 was slammed because the beer truck outside was overrun. Donna and I got a chance to talk to Mike McCree (Underground 119 owner) after the event had died down and morphed into a Jesse Robinson blues jam inside. Mike was exhausted from running around trying to solve problems due to the unexpected crowd, but told us he was very pleased at the turnout.

Former Yazoo Resident Talks Back to Barbour about Real Race History
With long-time white journalists like Wyatt Emmerich (Northside Sun) and Sid Salter (Clarion-Ledger) carrying water for Gov. Haley Barbour by excusing away his reprehensible and revisionist remarks about racism in Yazoo City, it is refreshing to see another white male journalist take a different approach. Read Robbie Ward's amazing column in the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal:

A Rez-olution.
Every year about this time I start thinking about vacation. The only hang up is that I'm a working girl with vacation days, and they're limited. So I've begun negotiations. What use am I really when I spend the days dreaming of the sun and sand? But until I get the boss man to see things my way, I will compromise and spend my weekends at The Rez. So why don't you bring your blanket and join me? I'll bring the fashion magazines!

Andre Brown
Andre Brown, 40, by all accounts was a man of good character, some would even say cool. He was a leader, a lover, a devoted father and one of the best people you will ever meet, friends say.
