Morrissey at Hartlepool Borough Hall Setlist

Just got back from Morrissey at Hartlepool Borough Hall. Love the 10 minute ride home. Will write more soon for now: Setlist exactly as written on one of the official setlists – snapped a crappy cell phone picture of it from the guy who got it.

Morrissey, photo taken on Kevins G1 phone. He made it look as good as possible. It is not a good camera on the G1.

Crossword puzzles on Kickstarter

Kickstarter is a way for creative people to get their dream projects, big or small, funded by the general public through microfinance as opposed to big massive sponsorship deals. These can be events, art projects, documentaries.

Similar to PBS / NPR funding drives there are donation levels and rewards, decided on by the creative people.

Many post videos to peak interest that are fantastic and status updates can be really creative too.

I found out about kickstarter via Ken Jennings (highly recommend his book) when he linked to Eric Berlin’s crossword puzzles.

Eric Berlin creates crossword puzzles. He wanted to create a suite of puzzles that interlink. To generate interest he linked to a pdf of a previous suite of puzzles on Brooklyn as a theme. They’re quite good. Just donating$1 gave you access to the puzzles and helped them to get made. For $5 people could participate in a competition. Reward levels above that included copies of his book.
