New Sections In Crowbar?! Where?!

While intensively immersing myself in HTML coding I have taught myself how to add some new sections to the Crowbar Blog, although very clumsily.

As of today, you'll find:

Song Of The Day
Now Playing...
Now Reading...
Current Documentary Pick...
Now Loitering...

These can all be found in the sidebar to the right of the actual posts (the portion I've spent the LEAST time on, to date :-). I'm going to try to update them pretty regularly - particularly the Song Of The Day and Now Playing sections - so those of you who like yerselves some music might find some things you'll enjoy there. Sadly I can't link you to the actual songs/albums, but whenever possible I'll try to connect you to something that'll let you know more about the picks.

: Name: Crowbar

Crowbar was born when a left-leaning "why-can't-we-all-get-along?" type finally realized why we can't all get along. Weaponry ensued.

Song Of The Day:

Brand New - "Jesus Christ"
"Jesus Christ, I'm alone again.
So what did you do those three days you were dead? Because this problem is gonna last more than the weekend."

Peter Bjorn and John - "Writer's Block"
I think it was the whistling in 'Young Folks' that snagged me into this one. Can't not like a good whistle.

"Criminalizing Women: Gender and (In)Justice in Neo-Liberal Times". Eds: Comack & Balfour. Academics who understand that the women inside's voices must be included.
Martha Gellhorn: "The Face of War". Gellhorn has an astounding history of frontline reporting and sneaking into places she's not supposed to be. Crowbar's kind of girl...".
"Canadian Journal of Women and the Law, Vol 17 No. 2". Oddly, I can't find a listing on-line for this volume, which happily landed in my mailbox last week.

Stephen King: "The Stand: Complete and Uncut". Ok, sure, it's embarrassing, but I gotta read something in the tub.

"Zero Day":
Okay, so it's not really a documentary. I was suspicious of this for a long time, but riveted when I finally caved and watched it. Chilling, not sensational, and maybe a little too real.

CSPAN: How do I love thee? So many Senate Judiciary Committee hearings, so little time..."
Fark: I'm embarrassed to admit it, but I'm still farking. We'll see how long I can last this time before endless "I'd hit it" comments drive me away screaming...
3WK Underground Radio: Streaming internet radio for all your indie music needs.
