The fridge

Since I love a good soapbox speech, I'll introduce a new feature area on the blog - the fridge... The name is derived from the familiar practice in homes everywhere of tacking up clippings of news articles of interest to the refrigerator door.

In the right hand column, (below "this week Jamie is:). I'll post links to various articles online that I find interesting... Right now it's just a couple of articles - one on the environment and another on an anti-war movie that won't be out until November, Redacted.

"The film's title refers to how, according to De Palma [the director], mainstream American newspapers and television channels are failing to tell the true story of the war by keeping the most graphic images of the conflict away from public opinion." -Reuters

Have a read! Or don't - it's your call, but they're there if you're interested and maybe going for a midnight snack. By the way - these two articles are kind of heavy, but I will also post some fun stuff too!!

It does seem a *bit* on the violent side... Us girls should go and see a light movie sometime soon - complete with popcorn at the Fifth Ave or the downtown theatre on Burrard...
