One thing I hate about the world of blogging / internet reading: everything disappears so quickly. It's the newspaper = fish wrap problem only with 'new media'...
same as it ever was. I'm pretty pleased with the way the month went. I finally buckled down and reviewed some damn movies. So herewith, my ten favorite pieces from May... in case you missed any (oh, indulge me)

01
The Piano retrospective -the best film of the 1990s?
02
Network retro "That puts us in the shithouse. That's where that puts us"
03
Barbara's Revenge Dench is "chronically untouched" in
Notes on a Scandal04
Thank You For The Movie The Music ABBA live-blogged
05
Be Very Afraid Batman Begins... with mp3!
06

Your retrospectives make me happy. When's the next fundraiser?
probably not for a good while. People don't like the begging ;) but you can always donate if you want (see sidebar) and it is my BIRTHDAY MONTH
wheeeeeee
p.s. clicking on sponsors is also helpful. If i had ads all the time i wouldn't need to ask for donations often but alas, the ads come infrequently. (it's sort of a shock to see 3 at once for this week after a month or two without)
clicking on ads on your favorite blogs --not just mine --totally helps your favorite bloggers statswise. just a PSA
If I click on an ad, do you get funds whether or not I by anything? I just click, and whatever happens after that, you still get credit? Just curious as to how these things work (without getting up to the nose - yet again - in unwanted spam) *cue monty python*
right. it's not a direct way to fund someone but if their readers show interest in the advertisement it ups their desirability as a place to advertise. (stats and all that)
sorry to both you others with behind the scenes office work ;)
