I’m out of town for a few days, so I’m resorting to something I rarely do:  a week in review post.  Some bloggers feature these weekly, such as my blogger buddy Mogadishu Matt.  I sort of did one back with “Lazy Sunday LVIII: Spring Break Short Story Recommendations Recap,” but that was more a review of a week-long series of posts, not a review, per se, of the week itself.

Ah, well.  That’s just nit-picking.  Here’s what I wrote about this past week:

• “Soda City Market” – This post was a review of my excursion Saturday to the Soda City Market, a weekly farmers’ and arts and crafts market in Columbia, South Carolina.  I was surprised by the popularity of this post.  I guess people like reading about festivals!
• “Morning Movie Review: Brazil (1985)” – This post was my review of the dystopian dark comedy Brazil.  I loved this film; my only regret is that I didn’t watch it again before my RedBox rental period expired.  It’s one of the best films I’ve seen lately that depicts a “dystopian” near-future, mainly because, for all it’s absurdity, it’s the most plausible depiction of actual reality.
• “Rock in Peace, Eddie Van Halen” – My brief tribute to and obituary of guitar legend Eddie Van Halen.  He was truly one of the greats.
• “TBT: Lazy Sunday LVIII: Spring Break Short Story Recommendations Recap” – My revisiting of the Lazy Sunday post of the same name.  It seemed appropriate given that Halloween is looming large, and I love spooky ghost stories.

That’s it for this edition of Phone it in Friday.  Here’s hoping I wrote some material good enough that you don’t mind reading it (and reading about it) again.

Happy Friday!
