Where are you located?

I'm in upstate NY (Binghamton area), but moving to Baltimore within the next couple of months.

*googles the Leopold and Loeb case*

Huh. Interesting.... It reminds me of the Parker-Hulme murder. You ever read up on that one?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parker-Hulme_murder

Oh yeah, it's definitely reminiscent of the Parker-Hulme murder. Though Leopold-Loeb was possibly even colder/more disturbing (if you can really quantify such a thing), in the sense that it was more of an academic exercise. Both fascinating cases, though. Heavenly Creatures was a great movie, too.

Did you get into the Leopold and Loeb case via Daniel Clowes?  :laugh:

I used to be obsessed with the Alex and Derek King case.

Actually, no. I'm not really sure how I got into it, actually. But sadly, I've never read/seen anything by Daniel Clowes. Been meaning to see Ghost World forever. I'll have to read up about the Alex and Derek King case... not especially familiar with the details.

You should definitely read Ice Haven by Daniel Clowes.  It's really short but it features the Leopold and Loeb case shown as a comic  :laugh:

I intend to see the movie one day, but I find it hard get into the whole graphic novel/manga/anime mindset. We have a fair amount of it around the house, though (Full Metal Alchemist, Death Note, a couple of volumes of Osamu Tezuka's Buddha series, and several Hayao Miyazaki DVDs). Never say never. :)

How was death note? Believe it or not I never watched it.

I've watched bits and pieces of it over my kids' shoulders, and don't have the detailed knowledge of the series that a genuine fan would have. Interesting premise, and interesting characters with complex psychologies and motivations. Maybe a little too convoluted. Very stylish, though. :)

Welcome to I2, TOW!

I'm also a fan of Magazine. I just heard they got back together and are doing reunion shows, w/ the guitarist from Luxuria taking the place of the late John McGeogh (RIP). They have a cool MySpace page as well.

Thank you, person with awesome taste!  8)

Yeah, there were several reunion shows back in February, with a bunch more (mainly festivals) scheduled within the next few months. I really wish they'd do some shows over in the US, but that doesn't seem too likely. RIP John McGeoch indeed... he's so horribly underrated.
