: headed up the Hudson to meet the Heathmans at a jack-o-lantern festival
: Want less "thinking outside the box," want more actual thinking inside the box. Free verse isn't intrinsically worth more than sonnets.
: Reason alone to take the long view and look on the bright side: http://tinyurl.com/484c54
: Gulp. NY Times headlines starting to resemble headlines from Superman movies - NATIONS WEIGHING GLOBAL APPROACH AS CHAOS SPREADS
: it takes longer to get just halfway across Manhattan as it does to get 3/4 down it
: going to church for a 'planned giving seminar' - ironic given the state of my 'estate'
: Is this week over yet? Will it ever be? (And can we just skip next week, while we're at it?)
: feeling like I need a one-week sabbatical. I think there's another name for those, but it escapes me at the moment.
: Watching the debate one night later, thanks to DVR. And it's basically what all the post-debate analysis, tweets and blogs said it was.
@adamclyde We don't respond to rumors, we just publish press releases about them. But you're right: good news.
: preparing to roast last of store's summor squash before editing a colleagues podcast
: Starting my morning listening to a discussion of internal budget funding models. May need a second carafe of coffee for this one.
Missed the debate but say an awesome Madonna concert - she ripped into Sarah Palin too.
With my friend Jenny at MSG getting ready for The Material Girl to take the stage.
: The weather turns cool / The leaves start to turn and fall / The Dow does so too
: The Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church, Katharine Jefferts-Schori, about to be interviewed today on Fresh Air. Cool.
No way to read/watch the NYT, New Yorker, Salon, 538, Met Home, Dwell, Stewart/Colbert, Maher, Ugly Betty, Runway AND read fiction. Crisis.
Found mp3 files of the Kennedy-Nixon debates and am listening to Nixon win. Next I want to find the .wmv versions to see Kennedy win.
: It always freaks me out a little (but usually in a good way) to see the voices I recognize from NPR on television.
My bank bought WaMU. My mortgage bank bought Wachovia. Soon, there will only be one bank: The Federal Reserve. Member FDIC. Free toaster!
