  1. blowfish, I don’t think the economist is very good. When they write about things I’m involved in they almost always get it wrong in important ways. Factual errors, glossing over the important stuff to write about whatever the reporter happens to understand. As this happens regularly with matters I am familiar with I think it’s fair to assume their reporting is weak across the board.

  2. “speaking of dragon too, did anyone read the new yorker article about Stieg Larson? it was fasciniating”

    I did, I loved the books, too. BH and I rented the movies. Predictably, not as good as the books—too difficult to include everything, I guess.

  3. bxgrl, I’m always amazed at how those folks are able to paint those big ass murals on sides of buildings – all while just holding a postcard size photo as reference. I occassional see those artists painting the mural on bloom st & crosby during my morning drive to work. Freaking amazing

  4. Speaking of, I saw a guy on Smith Street the other night carrying a ginormous Louis Vuitton “man”-bag, bigger than my mother’s biggest pocket book ever was. I kept waiting for him to give it to the woman he was with, but he just clutched it tightly.
