still a bitch, but always an interesting bitch

any of you old enough to know who camille paglia is might enjoy a trek over to salon.com to read today's interview with her.  she rehashes many of her old subjects: bush, madonna, rush, pop culture, and talks about the current offering of democratic candidates in a refreshingly critical fashion.  most of all though,  i enjoyed her thoughts on blogs.  a sample:

   "Blog reading for me is like going down to the cellar amid shelves and shelves of musty books that you're condemned to turn the pages of.  Bad prose, endless reams of bad prose!"  ....and there's more!!!!  she has inspired me to change the description of this journal.

check 'er out, it's fun.  i used to really hate her.  but today i was mainly amused.  i'd love to take a class with her.  philadelphia's not all that far away......hmmmmmm.

I read the interview as well. I loved her critique of the presidential candidates-- especially their hair styles. I don't always agree with Camille, but her words are incisive and sharp and honest.
