I'd all but forgotten about that column, and I'm so glad you've found it useful.<BR/><BR/>There are a bunch of great children's & YA blogs out there -- are you a youth services generalist or specializing in children's or YA? I can recommend some great stuff if you want!Sophie Brookoverhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10490160968954656866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11065796.post-1154918482953303772006-08-06T19:41:00.000-07:002006-08-06T19:41:00.000-07:00They have a great lineup this year. It's hard to top the last few years, but this one is equal to the quality they've been putting out.

It's like the bar ban being proposed for Springfield. Why kick them out of a controlled environment? So they can take their activities underground. I'm also sick to death of the video game legislation politicians are trying to push.<BR/><BR/>Our legislators in this country have a serious phobia of technology. We can't "protected" from everything under the sun.M.Brothershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08209134950862241318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11065796.post-1154376320079986842006-07-31T13:05:00.000-07:002006-07-31T13:05:00.000-07:00I know. Isn't this the most disheartening thing ever? The logic behind it eludes me. These government officials, most of whom probably don't know a blog from an email, are banning social networking sites (like Amazon - ?) because there are bad people out there. Well, with that logic we might as well just shut down the libraries and schools all together. What with all the school shootings and such it's just not safe anymore. While we're at it, let's close the malls, shut down the churches, and just lock ourselves in our houses. <BR/><BR/>They need to call it for what it is -- blatant censorship. If they could ban the Internet all together they would be the happiest little clams EVER!<BR/><BR/>Grrr...aleah mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06047512590926924582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11065796.post-1153422083491016792006-07-20T12:01:00.000-07:002006-07-20T12:01:00.000-07:00As a fan of Craig thompson, could I also recommend Alex Robinson ("Tricked", "Box Office Poison" and "Bop").

It was good, don't get me wrong, but not "ooh, I have to rush out and buy the DVD" stuff. The Moxie is a gem, though. I've been there more times than I can recollect without using my fingers.
