POPSRemembering Charlie Brown Entertaining and humourous article that pays homage to Charles Schulz's Charlie Brown. My favorite :) Like Groening, I too used to spend hours drawing Peanuts cartoons because they "looked" easy. I loved Snoopy! I wanted a beagle before I knew that they were crazy dogs. I owned a Snoopy snowcone machine - which they re-released and I saw at Urban Outfitters. I had thing for Schroeder. Thanks a million Charles Schulz!

POPSJezebel's response to WP article by Charlotte Allen I love Twitter. I get exposed to things that I am not exposed to. Here is a great response (paragraph by paragraph) to Charlotte Allen's OP-ED piece on Sunday for the Washington Post. "Tongue-In-Cheek"? What a load of bullshit!?! There are lots of responses and all I can say is that article (if you want to call it that) is offensive and full of shit. I really hate it when women hate themselves. Hum, I wonder what Charlotte Allen is thinking or is she going to respond? I love that the editor of the WP responded for her.

POPSSlate Article - Irving Penn : one of my all time favorite photographers I love Irving Penn and his portraits. I have a book that is a collection of his work on my shelf at home. This is an interesting Slate article about him because of the recent acquisitions made by a number of museums, like the Getty here in L.A. I cannot wait for next year when they will show the collection in the "Small Trades" exhibit.

POPSIslam & Wikipedia entry I think I would like to use this for my class. We discuss wikipedia and how to use it as a resource for their middle school papers. We also try to discuss ethical issues and this looks like a short article that could get them thinking about these issues.
