Okay, so it's Monday.  Looks like Madame Macfarlane had a show opening last Friday.  Drat.  Friday nights collect way too many commitments.  Hope we hear more about the show. Please, pretty please....

Things we talked across last Monday....

David Sedaris' New Yorker essay on wearing his Fitbit.  Can be accessed at the NEW New Yorker site, and as the magazine is opening up all its archives for free for the rest of the summer, try it out. Supposedly the website has been revamped and here's hoping it's a bit easier to use.

The New York Times article on Ira Glass and This American Life; on Ira Glass and his love of dancing....Hmm Sedaris loves walking, Glass loves dancing, perhaps there is a theme developing.... anyway.

Oh, and just for the curious, once upon a time Ira Glass had a girlfriend, graphic novelist Lynda Barry.  Her ONE HUNDRED DEMONS depicts our favorite public radio host (unnamed) as one of the demons in a not-too-flattering ("he had a freaky pony tail") way.



Blogger makes it easy to embed links but I haven't figured out a way to attach files.  I'll work on that.
