Paying Dues: January 2010
http://thwilliams.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 23, 2010. Over the holidays I had the pleasure of doing more recording w/ my friend Ian. I think the final cut was 5 songs, recorded in the same fashion as the Old Custer EP. Ian and I played guitar, Ben Gibson played drums. This recording was entitled The Undesirable Characters. Ian Bowling, Fall 2005. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Noun) Resides in the Florida Panhandle.

Paying Dues: August 2009
http://thwilliams.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 14, 2009. Fat of the Land. Also, as usual, Becker and Posner have an excellent discourse on the subject in their Aug 2nd post, in which Posner gives particular attention to Tomas Philipson's work on the economics of obesity (See Becker-Posner blog under Various Items). Discussion questions include which, if any, of these or other alternatives make sense? Should healthy non-Diet Coke drinkers have to pay a tax as opposed to obese Diet Coke drinkers? Should obese people be directly taxed?

Paying Dues: September 2009

Monday, September 14, 2009. That's All He Wrote. This blog has served its purpose. Over the last year and a half I've focused of a handful of topics and themes that were and are areas of personal interest to me and a handful of others. The writing has allowed me to examine these topics from various points of view and clarify my own position when needed. I offer a special thanks to those who contributed in various ways.

Paying Dues: March 2011
http://thwilliams.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 13, 2011. Blood into Wine -Apparently Arizona is an emerging wine center. This one follows the band Tool's Maynard as he explains the rigors of winemaking in a unique climate that is not traditionally associated with the vine. A lot of info about winemaking, great landscape shots, funny. Recommend watching this with Pinot Noir, duh. 180 º South -The protagonist travels down to Patagonia to meet up with the founders of both North Face and Patagonia.

Paying Dues: January 2011
http://thwilliams.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 29, 2011. A renewed case for increases in college tuition is gaining momentum. See Parliament's recent passage of a bill which significantly raises the ceiling on tuition and multiple states in the U.S. cutting funding for state universities. As usual, both Becker and Posner summarize the arguments for and against far better than I can so a visit to their blog is encouraged. A free university education is unfortunately out of the question, so what's left? Sometimes you have to.

Paying Dues: April 2010
http://thwilliams.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 22, 2010. Anything worth the ink and paper. I'm on the brink of two significant road trips, one North and one West, and I would hate to miss something because I went into the trips with no plans or goals in mind. That said, I'm making a list of things I want to take away. Saturday, April 17, 2010. Discussion questions include: 1) Why is it important to take a stand in those situations? 2) What is your breaking point -at what point does is become necessary to say something?
