Big Issue
What a Sunday morning! Wake up to John McPhee's "Tight-Assed River", a long, drifting, lyrical tribute to river barges and then people who crew them.
Then back to bed and Megabite and Jon Lee Anderson's "Out On The Street", which explains where the Baathists went when Bush decided to impose DeBaathification without thinking things through. And then, Adam Gopnik on the current editorial contretemps at Le Monde, of which I'd previously heard nothing.
That's one hot issue of The New Yorker. The five-grain pancakes (with real maple syrup, of course) were nice, too.
