The New Yorker is the only dead-tree magazine, or newspaper, for that matter, that comes into my house. And it's been that way for years and years. In a long-term geek fantasy of mine, my marvelous, elegant and bold translation of the Georgics (not yet written, of course), is lionized there.
Instead, our trip to the best of Old Media was because we were hacked. Life is so weird. Take this opportunity to acknowledge BH's trip to the big-time by sending our Soapblox fundraiser over the top. We are soooo close. Note: the "questionnaires" quoted in the piece referred to Mike Caulfield's Policy Straw Poll series. For those of you new to us, they are definitely worth a read. And for those of you who were around, remember what a game getting to be first became? And how Team Hillary wouldn't submit to the format? |
