- Paul Krugman strikes again, with his usual precision, cutting through the administration and media's BS about the state of the economy: It was a merry Christmas for Sharper Image and Neiman Marcus, which reported big sales increases over last year's holiday season. It was considerably less cheery at Wal-Mart and other low-priced chains. We don't know the final sales figures yet, but it's clear that high-end stores did very well, while stores catering to middle- and low-income families... |

- In general, I couldn't care less about the Michael Jackson circus, except to hope that all of the children involved are given the necessary protection/justice that the situation demands. But I couldn't let pass this New York Times story that says more about the state of the "news" media in this country than it does about Mr. Jackson or the judicial entanglements in which he finds himself. To quote from the article: Michael Jackson struck a deal with CBS to be paid in effect... |

- We're at Orange Alert, but does that mean anything? Secretary Ridge has been telling people to go about their business normally, but is it prudent? House National Security Subcommittee Chairman Congressman Christopher Shays says he would avoid New York City's Times Square and flights from Europe to America this New Year's. I think he's right on the money. Until DHS stops saying people need to be prepared, vigilant, and aware of the threat level, it only makes sense that people will take it into account when planning activities. |

Ewart Cecil-Humely, the 7th Marquess of Dorset, opened his survival tin to discover his rations had dwindled to hardtack, salted pork, and taffy. A grim look clouded his face. Squandering the venison had been a mistake. Disgusted, he tossed the tin back in his satchel, and returned to reconnoitering the sandy mound ahead, barren save for patches of dune wildrye and a singular bracket fern. |
