On Remember Two Minutes Ago?

I love the fact that Diski writes, "[W]hen documentaries return after every ad break, the narrator â€" voice-over or walking head â€" gives a full precis of the previous segments. You can’t expect an audience to hold information, so it has to be reiterated, even though very little is being asked of the viewer in the first place." And then, just in case we forget, recaps for us: "A simple point is made, and then it is enacted or pictured. Then it is said again. Don’t get complicated." And then offers a simile, to reiterate once more what she just said: "Documentaries are like mixed ability lesson plans. You teach to the least able who you never ask anything of." By the time I'm at the end of the paragraph, I can't even remember what she was talking about at the beginning.

On America Decides: What Should We Do With The Horse Buggerer?

Thanks for the clarification! I have answered the poll, and will now always smile a little smile when I think about Philadelphia baseball teams.

On America Decides: What Should We Do With The Horse Buggerer?

This whole story is disconcertingly unclear to me. Is the horse a boy-horse or a girl-horse? We know the horse's name, but unfortunately "Sugar" is a gender-neutral name for horses. Because I really want to know if this guy is gay. Then I can answer the poll.
