I'm not sure what you'd call it. A "musical"? Not exactly -- the movie's entirely naturalistic. There's no spontaneous breaking out into song and d ... |

| Wow, I guess I underestimated my ability to influence coverage here at Grist. If you haven't noticed, environmental media has been getting a lot of play around here lately.

| Last weekend I abandoned my cot in the supply closet at the Grist office to get out of Seattle for a spell and see the world. Specifically, I went to help celebrate a friend's birthday down in Eugene, Oregon, and go to a Clumsy Lovers show in Corvallis. Sadly, the band's bass player had strep, but I did discover that Corvallis' Sunnyside Up bakery makes a tasty and cleverly-named treat called the 'you're doin' a heckuva job brownie (with raspberries).' Hopefully a por ... |
