Palin-icity: The trick of being an expert on something due to its proximity

Hey Thanks Sarah Palin !

Thanks to your repeated claim to foreign policy experience due to Alaksa being close to Russia, I too can claim expertise in a countless number of things that I have no fucking clue about.

Pressed about what insights into recent Russian actions she gained by living in Alaska, Palin answered: “They’re our next door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska.”

So if you have any illnesses you need identified, go ahead and ask me. I’m not a doctor and I have no clue about science or medicine, but I do live near a doctor’s office. I see it every day.

Thanks to the Palin doctrine, I also prepared to represent myself in all legal proceedings. There are many lawyers near my home. Thanks to my “Palinicity” to them, if you ever need legal advice, I’m your man.

Palinicity means that I can cook nearly anything, thanks to my local restaurants….
…that I am an art historian, due to the fine museums in my city of London
…that I can Palinicity means that I can consider myself a qualified electrician, since I watch a lot of TV
…that I can perform the sacraments of the church, due to all the houses of worship near my home

But perhaps coolest of all, because of all the planes I see everyday criss-crossing the sky, I now consider myself to be a qualified pilot. Anyone want to get on a plane being piloted by me? Come on! I’ve got Palinicity, and that means you should feel confident putting your lives in my otherwise ignorant redneck hands.

Good luck America !

Billy used to live in America. Now he lives in London. Go, Billy, Go! We miss you, but we understand....

Naomie Kremer's Ghosts

As part of the Magnes WINDOWS series , the latest installation is by Israeli-born, Berkeley-living artist Naomie Kremer . The WINDOWS series was launched to use the Magnes new facility to positive effect, namely as public art to be viewed at night: to bring more cultural content to downtown Berkeley and in the evenings when the street traffic is less -- to light up the night. Kremer's opening was this evening and we had a really nice turn out, including important local patrons of the arts, collectors etc. Here pictured are Jeff and Jane Green , Penny Cooper (one of the Bay Area's finest collections, focused primarily on women artists with her wife Rena Rosenwasser ). Here Naomie introduces her video piece on Bluebeard's Castle, by Bela Bartok .

Why Go to A Conference Anyways?

Review: Macbeth

Macbeth by William Shakespeare My rating: 4 of 5 stars Four and a half stars, with one major flaw: the producers chose to do this funny little trick of overlaying Cumming's voices when he was multiple characters, namely three weird sisters when they spoke at once. The result was echo-y and distracting. Otherwise, the whole thing felt like the smartest guy in the neighborhood inviting you over to listen to him read, and you cared: knew the story and really wanted to hear how he delivered. It was intimate and rewarding. It also made me think about how it is a story of Scots and English. View all my reviews
