Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire. Home movies playing in the background. Work is a source of endless drama. There are many small dramas playing themselves out on campus at present, but one major drama has captured everyone's attention. One of our international professors found out, just three days before the start of the semester, that he can't legally work in the United States anymore. Why is that? Who also happens to be my best friend in the greater Sheboygan metropolis) is also an international professo...

Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire. Home movies playing in the background. Today a friend sent me a brief email: "I find it amusing that a superfine patriot like you has a birthday on the Fourth of July.". We say we value equality - I think we even believe it - but in the next breath, we turn around and pass Proposition 8. We condemn the president for supporting LGBT rights. Clearly, we don't believe in blanket equality; we believe in equality for some.equality for the people we like. The Fourth of July make...

Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire. Home movies playing in the background. I love you to death, but sometimes you make me sad. In fact, it’s probably because. I love you to death that you sometimes make me sad. The other day, for instance, we were in our colleague’s office playing with her office decor when you decided to wear the plastic tiara and brandished the whip. You were having all sorts of fun…until she tried to take your picture. Labels: Anxious Masculinity Watch. He said. "It's the best feeling...

Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire. Home movies playing in the background. I have been listening to Bon Iver nonstop since last night's big Grammy win. It's surreal to me that this person I know - admittedly not well - beat out Radiohead at the Grammy Awards.* In high school, when Radiohead was a pretty steady part of my musical diet, that was simply inconceivable. Still is, really. Here's what it is. The music makes me feel the way I felt when I lived there. When I listen to Bon Iver, I feel the way I felt ...

Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire. Home movies playing in the background. As Wisconsin prepares for an epic battle between good and evil - er, Governor Asshat and a challenger who will be determined in the May 8 primary - I have been thinking a lot about voting. You feel so good when you come out of that voting thing *. He said. "It's the best feeling." I'd never thought about it before, but once Nacho brought it up, I realized that he's right. Voting is.

Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire. Home movies playing in the background. This ad pisses me off on so many levels. Let's start with the Bart Starr football. Clearly, this is an attempt to appeal to Wisconsin's Joe Sixpack crowd.* "Oh, look, a legendary Packer! I must be right since I'm talking about the Packers! I'm one of you! My family and I love the Packers just like you do! You can't recall a Packer fan! Anyone who did that would be a shoo-in around these parts. It's brilliant. How about getting your Re...

Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire. Home movies playing in the background. I have been such a lazy blogger of late, neglecting my blogging duties not just on my personal blog, but also on the Stoneboat blog. And on my author blog. Yesit seems that I'm one of those writers who doesn't write, not even informally. That's not good. Speaking of writing.my essay "What We Do Here" will be be published in the fall edition of Fugue.

Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire. Home movies playing in the background. Random (or: peeling back the layers). I read 470 pages of student work in the last two weeks of the semester. Why I thought teaching writing as a good idea, I'm not sure. Not that I have any other options - at least not attractive ones. Writing professor it is. Christmas, in other words, has lost its luster, and celebrating at all feels like going through the motions. About the shootings at the University of Iowa in 1991. Her word...

Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire. Home movies playing in the background. Not so long ago, we were all fired up and ready to get involved with the efforts to recall Governor Scott Walker. We were pissed. We launched recall campaigns against Republican senators across the state. We won two of those elections in highly conservative territory. It wasn't a complete victory, but it sure as hell wasn't a complete loss either. I didn't just head to Madison and freeze my ass off while marching around the square in ...
