Manifesto/Bio

It’s a wonder I haven’t been booed and hissed off the blog, since I think President Obama is doing a good job; believe that even with its warts America is a great country; disagree that all CEOs and politicians are crooks; don’t inherently hate “rich” people; don't believe Wal-Mart is evil; love the lottery; think Houston Nutt is a good coach; think the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette is a fine paper (its overly-conservative and sometimes idiotic columnists notwithstanding); believe there's a higher power or force; and love the University of Arkansas.

'A Loss of Roses' a stunner

Before last Friday night, the saddest, most "depressing" Depression-era story I had read was Horace McCoy's "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?" However, after watching The Arkansas Repertory Theatre's opening performance of William Inge's "A Loss of Roses," I can attest that this play is as rough and unflinching as that Depression-era tale, or any other.
TV producer Bryant Huddleston disinvited as Imboden Ark., high school graduation speaker because he's gay
