quick thought... February 27th, 2007 - 2:37AM
Earlier tonight, I had two great local meetings. First, at the weekly homeless dinner held at the Greensboro Public Library, where I (literally) rapped with local poet and lyricist, Clement D. Mallory (The Future Of Poetry), prior to rapping with the homeless folk at the table. Look for a Clement drop this upcoming Lyricist Wednesday and for The People, Yes to go live in the next few weeks… for real.
Afterwards, I picked up Ndasanjo and headed over to Sue’s place to continue planning this year’s ConvergeSouth. You can bet on the two-day event to be fun, diverse, engaging and full of both marquee names and local talent — on the interactive, music and film fronts.

nice seeing you–it’s been a while. i’m going to try and make it to the next meetup…or is it still called that?
it was great seeing you too, dara (and you little one!). it’ll be good to see you out on the town again. i’m not too crazy about the location of the last meetup(?) though — it was loud and crowded and the wifi wasn’t working. so we might change it to the green bean or m’coul’s… keep an eye open.
