IF YOU READ JESSE THORN’S BLOG, then you knew about this 100 years ago,

BUT BILL WASIK BROUGHT IT TO MY ATTENTION TODAY, and I have to say, New York Times Magazine contributor Jon Glaser has got SERIOUS PIPES.

(That is slang for “vocal cords”)

AND HERE’S THE ESSENTIAL “making of video” that you saw 100 years ago on Jesse Thorn’s blog.

That is all.

1. COULTON covers BRAGG. In the words of his wife, “FINALLY.”

I HOPE VERY MUCH that Billy Bragg supports creative commons, because it would be sad to be sued by a communist.

2. SACHS has a blog about his mad, lovely travels around the earth. It is worth reading, because SOMEDAY HE WILL UPDATE IT.

TO FIND OUT WHY SACHS RUNS* SO HARD, you can read this month’s GQ.

*(or SANDBOARDS)

3. BRETT MARTIN has a worldly blog as well. It is worth reading because HE UPDATES IT EVERY DAY, and also it is named after his initials.

In the words of MARTIN, “FINALLY!”

4. JOHN SELLERS has always had an ANGRY BLOG, and plus he is reading from his book about his life as a GUIDED BY VOICES stalker at BOOK COURT tomorrow night. SEE YOU THERE.
(and: COVER by POTTS: a secret FIFTH FINE FELLOW)

AND I THINK its unabashed intelligence and its signal that he is unwilling to play the game of predatory politicking is one of the reasons I am so bloggingly open about my support for his candidacy.

BUT I MUST CONFESS, this was a very smart, compassionately wonky, and meaningful speech for Clinton to give today. And she lays claim to the economy as an issue, which it undoubtedly is to those of us who are not latte sipping bazillionaires.

OBAMA IS EQUALLY WONKY, but unless I’ve missed something, he’s been very shy recently about offering this kind of meat-and-potatoes policy-meal to Democrats who need more than just inspiration. I wish he had taken the lead on this one.

AND PERHAPS IT’S ALL EXPECTATION MANAGEMENT, but I don’t like to hear David Plouffe giving up on PA at the end of this AP story. I don’t think it’s wise to cede Clinton this state and the important, if symbolic, victory she’d take with it if she trounces him.

AND SURE, I’M ALL FOR THE NEW POLITICS, but seriously–why isn’t the sideshow media jumping all over this plain lie?

OK. That is all I wanted to say….

That is all.
