Fresh from their holiday break, the fine folks at This Is Not A Reading Series kick off the Winter/Spring 2007 season with…a film? Well, partly. This evening, join TINARS at the Royal Cinema as they celebrate the launch of Annabelle Gurwitch’s new book, Fired! Tales of The Canned, Canceled, Downsized & Dismissed.

We're glad that the Globe's trying to get all young and hip on us, but it looks as if they're also vying for the grand prize in the 'World's Busiest Cover Competition.'

Maybe they're trying to catch up to the Post, which has reefered its close-cropped heads since the Conrad era. Regardless, we're hoping they'll tone it down a bit. We get the idea - it's a TABLOID, it's DIFFERENT, it's LIVELY. And we generally like the section, though Liam Lacey in a new format is Liam Lacey just the same.
