This morning, an epic battle of wits took place. The battlefield: Morning Edition. You can surmise from this story’s headline both the participants and the victors.
The vanquished now lay limp and bleeding on the field while Montagne hoists the lance above her head in victory.
The transcript tells the epic tale. From the bard’s mouth, wherein […]
One time, I was out at my mom’s house, picking her up to go to dinner. When I went in the house, my mom was still in her work clothes, engrossed in a classic beach party movie on AMC. You know the kind - no real plot, lots of dancing, Frankie, Annette and some kid […]

It’s plenty clear that lately, we’ve had other things on our mind, but we’re supposed to be here to prove that Bob Garfield has it bad for Brooke Gladstone.

Some clarifications of credit are due: The lovely “Save Ferris” watertower graphic is mine, and is to be shared. We did NOT […]
Sad News Day Two: If the BPP can’t make it, how can the rest of us?
Good morning, everybody.
So yesterday, the Bryant Park Project got canceled. I’m sure you heard about that. If you’re just joining us and are wanting to hurl a few pebbles at the NPR Goliath, go here.
Yesterday morning, I heard that BPP was canceled via their Twitter feed and fired off a rather spiteful post after […]
