2011 Dec Consumer Culture ?? Now With Extended Hours!: ??Tis truly the season to shop.  As the holidays approach our stress over gift buying increases (mine does especially come Dec. 23rd when my entire list is still needing to be checked off.).  But fear not consumer, our retail outlets have you covered.

2012 Mar T??was the day of the council meeting?: and all through the Internet, not a blog was stirring, not even?. with?. ethernet? cables? This is why I didn??t become a poet.
