But I'm at least buying LESS peets (fewer peets?), I'll pass on them in favor of any other nearby coffeeshop. Besides, I imagine most coffeeshops this side of Contra Coffee (contracafe.com) are probably supporting similar causes. phooey, I didn’t even last a week before breaking down and buying coffee at peets… But I’m at least buying LESS peets (fewer peets?), I’ll pass on them in favor of any other nearby coffeeshop.

A man's got to know where the lines are. ;) First one to call me “old broad” will be hunted down and strangled.

Wolfowitz's comments seemed rather tin-eared given the nature of the rally. I thought that you had a rather good point. And of course, as you know, you're one of my inspirations. You, that obscure law professor from Knoxville and the graphic designer from Culver City. :-) The reason I remembered that post is because I was also at the rally.

It does seem to have the secondary meaing of "old lady." And it's so--so NYTimes. At least you all have stopped trying to call me "grande dame."

I actually went to high school with the guy and believe me if he hadn't inherited his job he wouldn't have gotten as far in journalism as Jimmy Olsen. Small wonder the Times is heading straight down the tubes.

You certainly are one of the doyennes of the blogosphere. Here is to many more years.

You are one my daily reads.

But don't count on too many more links... I can't read your site without getting a headache. Really. Read my rant about good web design. I'm talking from a publishing aspect, both print and online, of which I have had a loooong career. Jack, yes, but they're going to have to click on the link to find out about Jewish pirates. Soccer Dad: Yes, and thankfully, it wasn't a link to an embarrassing post. He never responded to that one. But he did respond to the next one, where I told him he didn't get the blogosphere. Probably because Glenn linked it. I have at least one reader who's been around longer than you. Larry G., who emailed me back when I still lived in NJ and was talking about moving to Richmond. He's been around since Iseema Bin Laden. I wonder who's been around since the beginning, though... my initial readership was in the dozens. Per week. Sammy, well, Chomsky leaps immediately to mind.
