I’ve compiled and edited my seven daily blog entries about the 2007 South by Southwest Film Festival into one handy feature, complete with photographs! So if you missed the blog entries, or if you have a half-hour to kill, or if you just like clicking links, read it.

Remember what the world was like in the year 2000? This week’s “Snide Remarks” Classic column might help you recall, as it makes reference to a couple of cultural items from that era. The column also predates the term “metrosexual,” which is too bad, because there’s a place where it would have gone nicely.

The column is called “Clothes-Minded,” and it is #124, published Sept. 8, 2000, in the Daily Herald. Do enjoy, won’t you?

Also: It occurred to me that you might want to see George W. Bush’s right-hand man Karl Rove rapping and dancing at the Radio-Television Correspondents’ Association Dinner. You can do that over here on the YouTubes.
