Canned. The proverbial Heave-ho. The old baseball "management has decided to go in a different direction". I feel like A.J. Hinch, except that I've been through puberty ( Read more... )

Well I guess I better take a break from my slam hiatus and come out next week.

I lobbied for a Mesa '07 reunion as a pick up team for the Cactus slam on the 25th, Kelsey was up for it...

I'm definitely up for it. If we need a fourth I could ask Hot Tuna Meltdown if he'd be willing to join...

Judging by the invite I just got to the slam in which I'm not included on the straw team, I'm guessing this is no longer happening?

i get the sadness part. as a mesa slammer since the end of '97 it sounds more final than the closing of the essenza. on the other hand i have enough on my plate with sound effects that i will rebound quickly. we'll have to talk about the sound system.

did you say "weakly" instead of "weekly" on purpose or was that a slip? it fits either way.

I havent been able to support like I used to when I had a car (I'm not as good as Brit with the public transpo to get there. Plus I usually work Thursday nights. You'd think I wasnt there enough to miss Mesa Slam but somehow I have a bit of the sadness too. Mesa has been a corner of my poetry world since 2004 so I hope this change will be good for Anthology and Valley poetry as a whole.
