You get 90 minutes to educate yourself on hip hop tonight. Seating is limited at tonight's showing of We From Dallas (2014) (Trailer is here) , a documentary on Dallas hip hop. The screening takes place at El Centro College at 6:15 p.m. (This is a general Eventbrite link).
The event is part of the Hip Hop Festival at El Centro College.
Who knew El Centro College was cool enough to host a hip hop festival? And to make it free?
The End
Thanks!

Remember the Alamo and When Dallas Rocked
I knew you were just thinking, "when will there be a documentary about the Dallas music scene airing on PBS?"
It just so happens, you can check out When Dallas Rocked (click for an article talking about a previously released version) tomorrow at 8 p.m. on Dallas' PBS station, which is KERA. Through your tube, you too can experience when Dallas was actually cool.
For your next flick feel free to try the Alamo Drafthouse in Richardson, Texas.
Brief Synopsis:
Good marks for: good service, interesting decor. Not good marks for: while it's fun to eat dinner while you're watching a movie, it's hard to eat in the dark, AND, very hot weather (not the theater's fault).
Roll credits, please, or in other words, have a great week.

Mexico City Driving, And Parkland: A Cinematic Masterpiece Waiting To Happen?
Good afternoon,
The other day I was driving and I witnessed a runner running against the traffic. It was about 6:30 p.m.
Not super heavy traffic, but the road was not bare of cars. This was just a regular road, not residential, but not a highway.
The running experts will counsel you to run against the traffic. They claim it is safer, and that motorists will be able to see you better and therefore not hit you. I am in disagreement of this policy, for the following reasons: it is more distracting for the driver to see a human coming toward them, and sometimes, this will actually cause the driver to hit the runner. Also, I just prefer to run the same way as the traffic. Just as long as you pay attention!
Maybe the person I saw was just an oddball, because he was also running in the traffic lane, while no one was in it.
new topic:
I was in Mexico City recently.
It was supposed to be a longer list, but, in any case, here are the major difference between driving in Mexico City and driving in Dallas, TX:
1. Mexico City: It may take you 1.5 hours to go about 25 miles.
Dallas: It may take you 1.5 hours, to go about 25 miles, but only if you are on LBJ.
2. Mexico City: You gaze out the window at kids performing tricks with fire, for money.
Dallas: You gaze out the window at construction workers showing off their NEON vests.
3. Mexico City: People honk their horn when something goes wrong.
Dallas: People just run into each other.
Yet a new topic:
There is a movie coming out soon called Parkland. It is based on events at Parkland Memorial Hospital. If the creators of the movie want to make a scary documentary, they should visit the real Parkland Hospital (meaning the ER).
Just kidding! I am a supporter of the hospital.
THE END.
