Yes, I waited a while to embrace this particular communication tool, but I'm now official a part of the Twitter world. Want to follow? Just click on the site and add IBJarts to you list.

You can also add IBJdining, which I'll be sharing with Andrea Davis here at IBJ.

What will I be tweeting about? Well, in addition to pointing you toward interesting links, tipping you off to TV programming of note, making pithy comments about entertainment matters, and informing you of last minute arts opportunities, I'll also be giving the heads up on arts bargains, announcing ticket giveaway contests, and more.

One more reason to join: The 20th person who signs up for IBJarts on Twitter today will win a copy of my book "In the Can; The Greatest Career Missteps, Sophomore Slumps, What-were-they-thinking Decisions and Fire-your-agent Moves in the History of the Movies."

Where will you find out who won? I'll tweet it, of course.

Oh, and a question for Twitter vets: What A&E tweets do you find essential or, at least, fun and/or informative? Let us know here.

Your thoughts?

    For those, like me, who don't want to sign up for Twitter, but want to follow Celebrity Tweets, check out:

    Click on the right hand side and see that Ludacris is quoting Mark Twain?

    I guess the whole world's officially gone crazy.

  1. The Fringe! Plus, the simple fact that there are so many local faves in such close proximity to each other.

  2. I remenber, watching the toll road, being built, through South Bend, when I was 10 years old. I believe, back then that it was estimated, that the toll road, would be paid for in 20 years and then it would be free. I am now 71, what happened? Since the power is in the people, by that, I mean that, we the people are in total control of everything. I, suggest that no one ever use the toll road again, let it go broke. We the people can control the price of everything, from groceries to gas, if we would just do it. If we don't pay the asking price, the sellers will lower the price and if we wait awhile, they will lower the price to what we accept as reasonable. I would like to know why a highway like interstate 94, is so well maintained, a much better highway, than the toll road, but has no tolls. I would also like to know why, a sitting governor, with a term limit, maximum of eight years, can lease, public property, for 75 years. Even though I have transponders in both of my trucks and will not be affected by the increase, I have been and will contine to avoid using the toll road. I make many trips from northern Indiana to Chicago, every year, and I prefer the better highway, I94!

  3. Coming from her background,she should be used to those kinds of advances! Menard probably figured it was ok to tuck a buck!

  4. I'm still waiting for the list of available, high quality apartments in the Village.

  5. This criminal masquerading as a lawyer obviously has serious issues. He’s been proven by his own testimony to be a pathological liar and probably has a personality disorder as he seems to be constructing a reality around himself. He places no value on truth, honesty or loyalty as evidenced by what he has done to his clients and his own family. And by the demands and lies he has made in court, it is evident he feels entitled to do and say whatever suits his purpose and everyone else is expected to nod obediently and believe him because he is, after all, Bill Super Lawyer; or BS lawyer for short. This millionaire wanna-be no longer owns anything of value; he squandered it and put everything he had into foreclosure. He has no money, house, car, boat or vacation home left to show for what he earned or what he stole. He’s just another loser without morals who will be doing time. I’m certain all of his courtroom shenanigans are antagonizing his poor victims. As Lamar said, his behavior and claims in court have been outrageous. The judge needs to be more than concerned; he needs to be judicial and end this nonsense.
