A note to our readers

Hey --
Another Sunday. And we're early (especially for us)! But that means something got forgotten. First, we thank all who participated this week which includes Dallas and the following:

The Third Estate Sunday Review's Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess and Ava,
Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude,
Betty of Thomas Friedman Is a Great Man,
C.I. of The Common Ills and The Third Estate Sunday Review,
Kat of Kat's Korner (of The Common Ills),
Cedric of Cedric's Big Mix,
Mike of Mikey Likes It!,
Elaine of Like Maria Said Paz),
Ruth of Ruth's Report,
Wally of The Daily Jot,
Trina of Trina's Kitchen,
Marcia of SICKOFITRDLZ,
Stan of Oh Boy It Never Ends,
Isaiah of The World Today Just Nuts,
and Ann of Ann's Mega Dub.

Let's talk content.


The economy.

The lies.


Another attempt to highlight the protests and the protesters.


Ava and C.I. have three shows they'd still like to review -- two dramas, one sitcom -- from this season. They were debating which to take on when a phone call came in from an SNL-er who pronounced Saturday's show (not yet aired on the West Coast) the all time worst season ender. Later, while they were working on writing this piece, a Not Ready For Prime Timer would call to knock the Tina Fey hosted episode even more.

Pinksy needs to grow the hell up.

Our tech feature. This is what cost us the DVD feature I've announced two weeks in a row. I (Jim) got so excited by this e-mail that I forgot about that feature until Dona reminded me as we were posting the latest articles. So, okay, we're moving the DVD story back yet another week. My bad. If you want to weigh in, our e-mail address is thirdestatesundayreview@yahoo.com.

Dona wanted this starting with when she read about it at C.I.'s site. She thought it could be a visual piece and it is.

There's at least one NPR-er worthy of praise.

An open letter.

A Workers World reprint.

Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it. And that's what we managed to complete and what we managed to post.




Peace.

-- Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess, Ava and C.I.
