Dearest poopers, There’s a lot to be excited about around The POOP Project right now.  An article I wrote about the swaddled American experience, “Huggies for Hanukkah,” just came out in Alef: The NEXT Conversation. This Monday night from 10-11 EST, I’ll be giving an interview to Danny Valdes on Radio Provacateur. And this Wednesday

Dearest Poopers, Thanks so much to all those who made it out this past week for our POOP Project events; they’re always poopy, but never crappy!

Darling poopers, It is with great sadness that I announce Bob’s delay (Bob is a communal, composting toilet soon to be in the midst of Manhattan). I received this from Bob late yesterday: Yes, rush over to the pavilion on the Columbia University campus to see what’s happening, but know that Bob has not yet

Dear Poo-etry Lovers, I regret to inform you that tonight’s reading has been canceled due to weather and the inability of planes to get me from Denver to New York.  We look forward to re-scheduling in the near future, and in the meantime encourage you to step outside, look up at the snow, and imagine

As Christmas Eve 2010 descends upon us, and sugar plum fairies stretch their quads, preparing to dance in our heads once again, The Puru wants to bring you in on a rather crappy Catalan holiday tradition.  But first, a plug for our upcoming event this Monday night!
