Back in the mix
I’m long overdue in updating this thing, thanks to my day job, night job, and some top secret but soon-to-be-unveiled projects.
Instead of trying to blog everything I’ve done, I’m just going to blog my latest published work for the next few months, along with the occasional commentary on life in New York/life in general. (For example, I could go on for 5000 words about how my Stanford Cardinal was ignominiously dumped from the NCAA tourney last weekend, but I did that the last time one of my teams lost, so I’ll spare you).
The latest with my byline on it:
From CampaignDesk.org: A brief piece commenting on an AP article about Bush eating broccoli.
A Philadelphia Inquirer column by Spinsanity about the Bush administration trying to backdate the recession, and John Kerry and others exaggerating job losses.
And finally, Spinsanity is hosting a debate between Al Franken and Rich Lowry reviewing each others’ books.
