IN WHICH YOUR DEVOTED CORRESPONDENT IS PUTTING ALL OF HIS ABILITY TO THINK COHERENTLY INTO THE WRITING OF A COLUMN, AND THEREFORE CAN ONLY POST VAGUELY AMUSING QUOTES FROM OTHER PEOPLE ON HIS BLOG TODAY
"How 'bout that Annika story, wow, it's a big one. The New York Times is pretending to send three reporters to cover it."
--David Letterman
"Do you know Teri77, AN, onebyone, Xanderr, etc? I have trouble following much of their chatter... it is in some sort of strange
shorthand that old farts don't (can't?) understand."
--from an email from my brother Joe
"Is thisAbington Gay Man Hobby Center?"
--an actual phone call received at our store
"How is it that domestic politics in this country is at once so rancid and so banal, so embittered and yet so uninspiring?"
--the first line of Christopher Hitchens's long-awaited review of Sidney Blumenthal's horrifying book The Clinton Wars
Oh, and there is at least one white rapper that I like after all.
