James Franco's Face and Benefit Party w Care Bears on Fire
At the Rumpus, my write-up on the New Yorker Festival has been linked to by a few places like PW Morning Report, Tao Lin's blog and Vol. 1 Brooklyn, which liked my title, "James Franco's Face."
Also, save the date, the Rumpus and Tin House are having a benefit party on November 17th 2009 that's going to be a blast.

Have you read "Get Your War On" by the way? I don't know if I would have made it through the Bush years without it. Its been referrered to as the psychic subtext to the war on terror. I just picked up the complete addition and I'm amazed at how complete it is. Whereas his site would only be updated a couple times every now and again, the book is really complete.
I also love the intro from Matt Taibbi where he says,
"These days we really are a bunch of static soulless cardboard figurines, mass produced by cookie-cutter, with two television sets for parents. The only thing distinctive about any of us is which demographic we belong to, and if you have that info, that is usually enough to explain how we'll vote, what we'll buy, and what TV shows we'll quote during dinner."
"Psychic subtext." Huh. Have not read the complete psychic subtext, but have seen the site. Interesting. Tx Kirk!
