jazz m left a comment for Dave Roche"Hey, Dave! We did trade zines, like 100 years ago! I'm surprised you remember, and can tell you affirmatively my writing has gotten much better since I was a teenager. Would you be interested in trading again, in this decade? "
Dave Roche replied to Sarah Arr!'s discussion Books?"Voice of America by EC Osondu was incredible. For something lighter, I liked Fine Fine Music by Cassie J. Sneider."
Dave Roche replied to Erin H's discussion Making zine spaces accessible"I was tangentially involved with planning one of the Portland Zine Symposiums, and by that I mean I really didn't do anything other than go to meetings, but I know people put a lot of time and energy into organizing these things. …"

Katie replied to Dave Roche's discussion Hella posi"Ohhh, my sentiments exactly. Right on, Ren. That's what I always think to myself at zine fests, in just those words: These are my people. And that is a beautiful feeling and one I'm thankful to have.
Love yas all, you grouchy-sweet old…"
Ren! replied to Dave Roche's discussion Hella posi"Well, since I don't really know any of you yet: thank you all for being awesome everyone who contributes to the scene, who keeps things going, everyone who makes zines, everyone who reads them, and everyone who gives us something to write…"

Lauren Therese Geiger said… - Hi Dave! I 'friended you because I'm reading On Subbing, and I'm lovin' it. My Mom read it first, she works in special education, and she loved it too. I think she even sent you a fan email! :D Anyway, thanks, I'd love to trade zines. I still have copies left of Issue 1 of Minutes to Milleniums. It was the first I ever made, so it's not the best out there, but I do talk a little about my kidneys. I actually finished the zine literally minutes before I was diagnosed with PKD. But yes, I love reading about other illnesses, I can connect and sympathize in ways I really couldn't back when I was "normal". And that's both a humbling and up-lifting experience!

Marla Raine said… - Omaha's a pretty shitty town in the winter, to be quite honest. There's a collective house in Lincoln (www.lunkradio.org, if you want to check out their website and forums, etc.) that's currently trying to get a zine library started (it's mostly radical leftist literature, but from what I've seen it's getting along), and they have collective meetings every Wednesday night that are open to anyone to attend.
My favorite Vegan restaurant is McFoster's Natural Kind Cafe, which sits on the corner of 36th and Farnam, I believe. You have to try their celestial bananas, if nothing else. ;] Are you into punk music? The Hole on 16th and Leavenworth is an all-ages venue that hosts a lot of punk shows during the week. Dates/Line-ups/Other information can be found at myspace.com/theholeomaha.
Must-see sights are Gene Leahy Mall and the Old Market in downtown, and a walk through Memorial Park at 60th and Dodge Streets, and, if you're into water, checking out the pedestrian bridge across the Missouri. Not much else goes on down here. You kind of have to ask around when you get here to get the skinny on anything else. I'd be happy to show you around to a few places (if I can get the time, lol), or if you have any other questions please ask them.
Hope that helped, and I hope you have fun if you come here!
