Annie Bloom's Scores One for Decency

I can't tell you how relieved I was to see on KATU tonight that Annie Bloom's Books is declining to carry the OJ Simpson book "If I Did It". Don't even get me started on what the existence of this book says about some publisher's lack of moral judgement. And that's more than enough talk about OJ in this 'blog. Thanks, Annie Blooms. The news may have characterized this as a decision based on low sales projections, but I'd like to think it's just common sense.

In other Annie Bloom's Books news, I was just reminded by an email from the Multnomah Villagers Yahoo! group (no relation) that Dr. David Suzuki is speaking tomorrow night at 7:30PM at the Multnomah Arts Center. Thanks Bernadette!

This event is sponsored by Annie Bloom's, in relation to the release of Dr. Suzuki's Autobiography (volume 2, for those of you keeping count). This event will be packed, to be sure and is $5 - you can get a ticket at Annie Bloom's. The info is on the main page of their website. This event is also sponsored by the Northwest Earth Institute.
