oh the horror

GBV are splitting up. Well, to be fair thats old news. But if you haven't heard of gbv, or Guided By Voices to give them their full title you really should have. Check out www.gbv.com for a collection of mp3s. They're the kings of indie rock. And soon they will be no more..... they have so many great songs behind them. Sigh....


So, yeah, for doin' your bit for mankind go to www.thehungersite.com every day and click. And you donate a cup of food. No catches. Thats all you have to do. No spyware, no emails, just donate some food to help the hundreds, even thousands starving now. See, while the tragedy in Russia is horrifying, in Dafur right now people are dying, and a fair amount of them are children. But it escapes media coverage because theres... well because if people cared about this then the governments might have to do something about it, I guess. Honestly, theres so much death going on around us, it saddens me the way the media obsesses over the republican conference while mentionning briefly that nothing at all is right in the Sudan. You can't make a huge difference... but you can make a little. Oxfam has a fund specifically set up to help those there. Why not donate some spare change next time you're passing by a shop? It won't hurt you. Honest.
