Friedman’s latest column in the NYTimes

February 20, 2003 by Michael Boyle

Friedman’s latest column in the NYTimes

seems like a pretty reasonable analysis of the current sad situation: Tell the Truth. “Some of this we can’t control. But some we can, which is why it’s time for the Bush team to shape up – dial down the attitude, start selling this war on the truth, give us a budget that prepares the nation for a war abroad, not a party at home, and start doing everything possible to create a global context where we can confront Saddam without the world applauding for him.”

It looks like Shift

It looks like Shift

might finally be closing, according to this TorStar article: Shift magazine publishes its last issue. I was a reader since its original Lit-mag incarnation with the round logo, and although I’d stopped keeping track when the second of the two founders stepped aside, I still think it’s a big shame that it couldn’t keep on going.

That said, it’s Shift – it could just as well be reincarnated as anything else.

A question for readers.

A question for readers.

Prompted by the fact that Ed has added titles, I wonder what people think of the approach that I have taken here, where the titles aren’t used as titles per se, but as introductory text for the whole post. If anyone could comment on this I would appreciate it. [note the bold text at the beginning of each post is nominally a title.]

Art Knows:

Art Knows:

Artistic Sign Language: Signs of the Coming Bush Fall by Bernard Weiner. Link courtesy of Caterina.net. “In all three cases, symbolic shrouds are placed over art, so that nobody will notice the bad things that are being done in American citizens’ names.”
