I just saw a great documentary called "Call Me Lucky."

I heard about it on a Marc Maron podcast, so I thought I'd check it out. I'm glad I did.

It's about comedian/social critic Barry Crimmins, and parts of it are powerful.

It's directed by Bobcat Goldthwait, who is really on a roll.

Crimmins did to stop child porn. And AOL just facilitated it, because they were making so much dialup money.

I love documentaries about truth tellers.

I'm on my library's waiting list for the "Citizenfour" DVD. I'm looking forward to seeing it.

I realized there were some members who would praise a persons poetry based on their 'age' and I accused them of being pedophiles...I got banned from AOL for life...just saying?
