Possumblog

Not in the clamor of the crowded street, not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

REDIRECT ALERT! (Scroll down past this mess if you're trying to read an archived post. Thanks. No, really, thanks.)

Due to my inability to control my temper and complacently accept continued silliness with not-quite-as-reliable-as-it-ought-to-be Blogger/Blogspot, your beloved Possumblog will now waddle across the Information Dirt Road and park its prehensile tail at http://possumblog.mu.nu.

This site will remain in place as a backup in case Munuvia gets hit by a bus or something, but I don't think they have as much trouble with this as some places do. ::cough::blogspot::cough:: So click here and adjust your links. I apologize for the inconvenience, but it's one of those things.

Short 20th is closed, every Porta-Let in town is rented, lots of sweaty young things in halter tops and shorts, and what's that I see...ah yes, a funnel cake trailer! It can mean only one thing, it's time for Birmingham's City Stages music festival, which promises to not suck this year.

It really is a pretty cool thing (even in the sucky years) and it does help show folks that Birmingham is actually a neat, friendly place, and downtown especially is clean (more or less) and not filled with criminals. As with all such events, there are corporate sponsors for the ten stages scattered around the area, the most intriguing being the Road Runner High Speed Online GospelFest. Just something about that combination that seems...odd.
