“Officials in Grand Junction, Colo., are reporting a huge spike in pregnancy rates every year after the annual Country Jam festival. New pregnancies typically quadruple in the weeks following the festival, Wanda Scott of the Mesa County Nurse-Family Partnership told the county commission last week, and ‘we could literally use eight more nurses.’ Commissioner Janet Rowland replied, ‘I don’t know what else we could do at this point short of putting birth control in the water at Country Jam.’”

Today my mom and I visited drug court in South San Francisco. When we got there the presiding judge showed us his chambers and then the bailiff said we could sit wherever we wanted, and suggested the comfy chairs of the jury box. My mom and I opted for the less conspicuous seats in the back, and good thing, because before long a chain of seven orange clad convicts were escorted to those very same ergonomic seats. Including the three orange and red suited men indicating their status as criminally insane sex offenders.

3 women
Dee, 33, the eldest, always wears her hair pulled back with a splash of violet perfume behind her ears, competent and poised she is a tough act to follow
Dahlia, 27, the middle, often in the backseat, never the star, she is the secret keeper and had always been daddy’s girl
Lucy, 22, the baby is now expecting a baby, she can’t hold still long enough to decide if she is terrified or ecstatic, she moves as if there is constant fire

Soho Think Tank’s Ice Factory ‘08

a new play by KARINNE KEITHLEY

directed by MARIA GOYANES

In a landscape of lost love and modern loneliness, a company of strangers map a tentative journey towards just letting go. Keithley’s lively, rhythmic text weaves a tapestry of beautiful impossibilities inhabited by a singing chorus of online shopping carts and a place called Kentucky-Montana, which exists but if you end up there you are in trouble.
