Living in the past: First and then
By Wade Kwon
October ruled! It was busy month for Wade on Birmingham, and a memorable one at that. Let’s look at the latest harvest …
- Reality ain’t what it used to be. It’s awesome squared! Our favorite gal pals from Birmingham, Lyn and Karlyn, continued their improbable trek in “The Amazing Race.” They’ve been to Vietnam, India, Kuwait and Mauritius (it’s in Africa, and yes, we had to look that up). Still not too late to join in on the action …
- OK, it’s a little too late to partake of the angsty teen fun known as “Two-a-Days.” But you can still find out what’s going on with Repete while waiting for season 2 to begin in January.
- Crime in Birmingham is out of control. And we have the map to prove it. How long before homicides hit triple digits?
- If you want something done right, do it yourself. Or join the merry band of young professionals throughout the Birmingham area ready to take the next step.
- My first podcast: a lecture I gave on new media and blogging. Well worth your 56 minutes to hear me babble about writing haiku for a news site.
- My first live blog: the debatable throwdown between gubernatorial candidates Lucy Baxley and Bob Riley. So much fun it should be televised. Part of our continuing Vote 2006 coverage.
- My first anniversary: one year older, one year wise-ass-ier.
- Highlights of my other blog, Wade Kwon.com, because it becomes cranky when ignored.
