This is something I’ve been meaning to say for a while now, but iTunesU is the Awesome. If you haven’t perused the selection of full-course series of lectures from top institutions available there, (utterly free!) it’s high time you did. I recommend Jack Balkin of Stanford on Revolutionary America, David Blight of Yale on the Civil War, and John Merriman of Yale on European History. That’s literally a drop in the bucket, though. It’s insane.Report
This weekend is my college’s “Reunions,” a sort of massive three-day party that brings together coeds and fogeys. Lots of old friends. Maybe some new ones. Good times all round.Report
@Matthew Schmitz, Crap, that’s this weekend? My commute home tonight is going to suuuuuck!Report
Here’s a question I’ve wanted to have answered for a while. How, if at all, has Sarah Palin influenced the way women (or men) dress/do their hair/shop for glasses? Isn’t there a WaPo style section article here? Did I somehow miss it?Report
For starters, I’ve seen more Sarah Palin drag queens than I even care to think about.Report
My internal debate involves whether I should purchase Red Dead Redemption.Report
@Jaybird, “For” appears to have won the upper hand given the work emergencies that resulted in me missing out on an impromptu morale lunch.Report
I saw Bon Jovi last night in the new Meadowlands after my wife won a pair of tickets. Yeah, they’re not the world’s most talented and creative musicians, but dammit all if it wasn’t a blast from beginning to end. What was weird was that throughout the concert I repeatedly alternated between feeling old and feeling like a kid again.
I could do without the $9.75 price tag for beer, though.Report
@Mark Thompson, Only 9.75…I would have assumed it to be like 25 dollars with the new stadium and everything. I can’t even watch the yankees anymore for less than 300 dollars (get there, tickets, etc.)Report
