This idea is too good to limit to one program per year. You really gave me the taste for an audio chapbook of blog entries, but it was over too soon. To wait another year is an awful concept.

I heard a little of the show in a quick dash from work (quick though technically it’s an hour). Wasn’t there a guy talking about framing on this show? I thought it might be George Lakeoff. Is there a blurb somewhere that sez who Chris was interviewing?

What a fantastic set of readings. Congratulations to the actors on a fine, entertaining job (even with the mispronunciation of paella). It was strange to feel so comfortable with my own words in the mouth of someone else (mine was the barcode piece). Thanks to Henry Shepherd, Chris Lydon and all others for pulling this together. Definitely more entertaining than I expected, and a neat window onto the world. Thanks to all the writers for challenging me to strive for high-quality posts.

Your actor needs to learn how to say paella. It’s pie-ay-a.

You should try it sometime.

I should have given this URL: http://looker.typepad.com/looker/2006/06/the_clown_still.html.

It started with a suggestion from a mainstream magazine piece (in this case, Harper’s) and morphed into entertaining piece of originalâ€”and not remotely objectiveâ€”reporting.

I respectfully dissent from all this blog-enthusiasm. “Blogging” had it’s moment of almost-hipness just prior to the 2004 Presidential Election. Now it is about as cool as gardening. It is also more closely related to masturbation than journalism. You have gossip about your boss? You are traveling somewhere? You had weird sex with a stranger? So what? Your mundane life is not made epic by posting to the net. And people who read blogs should be too engaged with their own lives to have time for other people’s diaries.

Of course, in so far as Open Source is a blog, I make an exception. Only interesting and intelligent people read and post to this site.

My wife has a blog http://twilightmonkey.blogspot.com/ that chronicles the life of our family:

“A nearly-legal anthropologist and only child of a relatively average background, raising five kids with another only child who doesn’t shy away from being an egalitarian husband. We know as much about what the heck is going on with this sibling thing as we do about fixing anything related our house or our car, so we are always learning something new. Of course, that makes it all the more fun, no?”

She is just great. Really. And no, that is not a gun pointed at my temple.

Life in LaLaLumay Land "Why Miss Fix-It can follow the direction of a mumble-mouthed teenager requesting the New Millennial Meld of Bowl Cut, That Girl Flip, and The Donald Comb-over but fail to understand my clear request for a Flapper Cut is something that continues to vex me."

The day you were born we call D-Day. â€œDelivery Day,â€? but also the anniversary of the actual D-Day. You were quite kind to me (as getting out of another human beingâ€™s body goes) on your way into the world â€” I labored at home and moseyed over to the hospital about 5 hours shy of your arrival.

unibrow.blog.com is a great blog I visit from time to time. It’s mainly about literature–his book reviews are often very funny in addition to being fluently written and knowledgeable–but he also has an ongoing commentary on the Federalist Papers under way. Yesterday there was a great post about Saul Bellow. Anyway, here’s one of his posts from June 6. It’s about the novelist Paul West.
