I should have mentioned this earlier. The UMKC Undergraduate English Council is encouraging students (and other interested parties) to attend the 7:45 showing of American Splendor (a film about writer Harvey Pekar) tonight at the Tivoli Cinemas in Wesport. The plan is to go afterwards to the Broadway CafÈ for post-movie discussion. Your Tivoli movie ticket gets you a free drink at the CafÈ.

Later in the year will be, I think, a reading and discussion of some of Harvey Pekar’s work.

Hmm. I wonder whose idea this all was?
