"What happened to the Cubs?," I ask Lou Piniella. His answer? Lots of travel of late reduced my links. Sorry. One of our highlights at the Zoe conference last weekend was seeing our friend, Bob Smietana, who now writes for...

I'd say "thanks" for rickrolling me... but I'd be LYING!
"Honk"
I can't answer for Lou, but I have a guess as to what happened to the Cubs, and it might be obvious: the wheels fell off. It all started with Harden giving up that grand slam in Game 1, and went to a hot place in a handbasket really quickly. The Cubs rolled over and played dead against a team that they should have beaten handily. Just a guess. Feel free to throw rotten tomatoes at me if you need to.
Time's comparing the experience of "transgendered" people with that of normal men and women and calling it science? Now that's ridiculous.
Honk! And left a comment.
SofS is another "blue parakeet" in a sky of otherwise dull birds.
The "September Madness" by Greg Mankiw is an attention-getter. Zowie!
Scot,
I just read the Tennessean article on Palin. What is the difference between some Southern Baptist proponents' position on Palin and women in society and those of Islamic imams' positions on women in society?
Loved Tom Smith's blog: I think the next time I hear that question (at least once a week), I'll breathe deeply, tell a story, and then announce the numbers...
Read the Tennessean Article. It is the 21st Century isn't it?
Forget the Cubs and the Bears - there is mourning and a call for sackcloth and ashes in A2.
Thanks for the link, Scot. Isn't it fun to know that someone's even writing a book on how blogging is good for the brain? (I know, there are a lot of links in that post, but one link IS to a fascinating up-coming book on blogging and the brain. I daresay I'll line up at the library to read that one!)
Oh, and I totally love your running interview joke here. Very amusing.
Ack!! I've been rickrolled!!!! LOL!!!
Scot thanks for the link to Chris Folmsbee's site. Well put together vision and approach...
