This is episode 31

I've always had a slightly evil slant on the stories people tell each other.

Its called bullshit and it deserves to be shoveled into a pile and set afire.

I was specially struck by "Virginia Woolf" in "A Room of One's Own"making the point that if Shakespeare had had a sister, it wouldn't have mattered if she'd been better than he was, she'd never have got a word in edge-wise.

That's why I've always loved "Siobahn Fahey" who sings divinely on "You're History" by: "Shakespeare's Sister" http://www.shakespearssister.co.uk/

We got PSAs:

----

Campus Safety urges students, faculty and staff to sign up for text alerts, online @ spc.edu/alerts

This will be used to inform students, faculty and staff in an emergency.

This was useful last year in the bomb scare.

To sign up, students must know their Spirit ID # (Bring their Saint Peter's College ID.)

Here's a proper, honest to goodness, real promo. :-)

We've also got some cross promotion going with the web version of St. Peter College's own "Pauw Wow".

The perpetually available and comment capturing web version is "growing on" as opposed to the occasional "Dead Tree" edition which can only capture "a moment in time" for a minority of the news competing for a scarce resource, space with anything else on a fixed number of pages.

As Liebnitz famously once said: "The 'Power of the Press' belongs to those who own one."

But as anyone who can read will attest, the limitations of "that" business model are slowly bleeding to death all of the owners of the "dead tree" press.

The future of the press lies on-line with the internet mixing media according to their appropriateness to whatever is being reported.

From "Twitter" to IM, to e-mail, to FaceBook to Podcasts, to web-radio, to streaming content, to PDFs, to vodcasts, to YouTube, to MP3s, to app mash-ups, to whatever's next, the internet is emerging as the clear winner of the media wars.

So log on to http://pauwwow.com/ and grow with the media.

This evening's theme is a "String Serenade".

And I have an idea on how to close out this evening's show. Heh heh.

(If you're getting the show via the web, your browser's letting you in one the joke and if you're catching the show via iTunes, look at the end of the chapters list. :-)

And this show is also being podcast in m4a format, which means that it you use a compatible player, like iTunes, you get the content divided up into chapters with images and "hot links" to the the web, on the topic of the chapter or to accompany the music.

You can send me feed back. suggestions, or just some sign that there's anybody actually outside the studio.
