3 Mile Run: Neighborhood

No CD's on this run, I got caught on Adam Curry's Daily Source Code. I checked out the MadgeCast videos distributed via my subscription. For those of you who don't know, Madge is Madge Weinstein of Madge Weinstein's Yeast Radio. I have only heard Madge on Adam's show (now nicknamed "the Charlie"). She sounds hilarious and creative. She, by the way, is biologically a he and prefers the masculine gender. Except for these video's , I had only seen glimpses of Madge and always in drag. Madge's partner died in February. This is quite evident in the video's.

Madge, sorry for your loss. I would check out your show should I have time. But, I just can't keep up with my current subscriptions. I did appreciate seeing you without drag. Just to see what you "really" look like. Seems wrong that at such a time while viewing such a personal creation in such circumstances, that this is what strikes me. The video is very touching. I hate to see the pain anyone suffers after such a loss.

Can't wait to hear Adam's next show as it should contain details about his suit against the gossip rag in the Netherlands. The took pictures from Flickr that were covered by a Creative Commons, non-commercial use license and plastered them in their rag. Moreover, they pissed off Adam (and for good reason) by following his daughter to school and describing where she goes to school. Most disturbingly, they described her travel arrangements and schedule. So, Adam had to change them of course. Even Lawrence Lessig is apparently interested in this one. Should be interesting.
