Priceless Information  

This is Ian's piece of web. See it go. Go, weblog, go! Go travel in Asia. Go study in Tokyo. Go home to Portland. Nah, what the hell. Go, study in Beijing.

Stop. I am a student studying Chinese language in Beijing.

I started this weblog in the Summer of 2002. It keeps following me wherever I go. But, I'm glad to have the company.

Thanks to Clifton for hosting Domodomo. If you need a flash or website designer, you can do no better.

Domoblog - My old Tokyo mobile weblog.

Domo Music - Music I done made. Shockingly presented under the artist name of "Domo Domo."

Racist Character in Fantasia

The cut and cover-up in Disney's 1940 Fantasia:
The segment of the film set to Beethoven's "Pastoral Symphony" contained three shots with a black female centaur (named Sunflower). Performing menial duties for the blonde, white female centaurs, Sunflower is a racial stereotype along the lines of Amos and Andy, Buckwheat, and Aunt Jemima.
Read the whole article at The Memory Hole.

Somehow I think Disney has a lot more demon's in their closet then this. Any company that purports to have created the 'happiest place on earth' is suspicious. You've created your conception of the happiest place on earth. But at what cost? Have you lost the very sorrow that makes joy meaningful? Or maybe the cracks at the seams tell the true story.
