Harvard Magazine does a profile of Andrew Sullivan: World’s Best Blogger?
Pretty interesting....
Can't drink, smoke, diddle my willy. Doesn't leave much to do other than watch you blokes stumble around playing Agatha Christie.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Even aside from his politics, I refuse to grant that title to anyone who is so completely fixated on a woman's uterus.

ION, apparently the guy who wrote Three Cups of Tea, Greg Mortensen, has been lying about where the money was going. At least some of the schools were never built, and some of the others were shortly abandoned, and he has himself a private jet.
Jon Krakauer did a full expose here.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
JK's expose is a little overwhelming. I downloaded the pdf, but I haven't finished it yet.

Jon Krakauer did an expose? Wow, um. I've read his books, and yes, I've read his exposes on climbers and a group in Utah, but this (from my not having read anything perspective) feels a little cagematchy? I will shut up and read now.

Apparently Krakauer had given Mortensen a lot of money for his philanthropy; I can see that learning the money was misspent inspiring a certain amount of rage.
Me, I wouldn't want Krakauer mad at me.

That is really sad about Elisabeth Sladen. Fucking cancer.

Consuela,
I will do everything in my power NOT to get JK mad at me. I knew the fool was in trouble when there is a map. IN COLOR. on page 6.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Obviously he never learned the lesson to screw people over and get out of town fast.
