As usual, I'll begin my Sunday by complaining about NYTimes and their stupid rss linking. There's a really interesting article in today's edition about a diary written by a teenager in 1930s NYC that just turned up in a dumpster -- interesting details from the diary plus the story of how it was found and returned to the now 90 year old author. I'd link to it for you but, of course, the link generator doesn't work for that article. For some reason, articles in the Metro sections -- the ones not included in the outside of NYC version of the printed paper -- seem more likely to fail in the rss linking process.

Instead, here's a couple of other stories:
Love, (the new Cirque show) considered, with a focus on the music. I didn't realize at the time how heavily remixed, remastered, and mashed-up the music was. I knew it was different but wasn't really thinking about why/how.
Part 9000 in the ongoing series Elegy for an Aging Hipster... unintentional hilarity ensues
A great NYC tradition -- blagging your way into the Met (hey, if you care about the scorn and contempt of others, you're not hardcore New York)

and, finally (getting away from NYTimes), let's wrap up with dessert: big pie!!
