I will be re-reading all of Saul Williams poetry books and especially enjoying The Seventh Octave. Then I will be sitting down with a great big box of Cracker Jacks to watch SLAM. Lastly, my Ipod has been shuffling through all of his cd's over the past few days.

If you haven't noticed...I am a huge Saul Williams fan.

Thanks,
