Here’s what’s caught my eye this morning:
- Abu Aardvark fills us in on what’s on TV on the Arab-language satellite news stations.
- Marcus Cicero of Between Hope and Fear cross-posts so much of his work on Winds of Change that
I don’t look in on his blog often enough. Go check out his reflections on 2004, a great small essay from one of the best essayists in the blogosphere. I think he needs a hug.- Maurice Bernstein of Bioethics Discussion Blog discusses the conflicts between do not
resuscitate directives and surgical consent.- When is an idiot a savant? When he’s the richest man in the world, apparently.
- Brad DeLong lays out the Social Security Talking Points.
- Glen Wishard of Canis Iratus has an amusing list of things he believes but cannot
prove (yet).- Noah Millman of Gideon’s Blog, a favorite of mine who posts too infrequently, considers the
prudence of solving our problems with North Korea by asking the Chinese to invade it.- Gene of Harry’s Place appreciates the irony of having Kid Rock perform at the
upcoming inauguration.- Glenn comments on a new book by
Mary Ellen O’Connell. Mary Ellen is a really brilliant woman and the first woman to ask me to marry her (back in college). She was kidding. I think.
That’s the lot.
