In the New Yorker...

Well, that's a good suggestion, but I'll have to at least check them for articles about the theater, movies, TV, books, and interesting people and so forth that I might want to read. I could just skip the articles about the election.

I've been able to toss whole chunks of my toppling New Yorker piles when I've realized they dated back to a previous presidential administration. :laugh:

I know I'm way, way behind on my magazines, but I'll report in here and say that I'm currently enjoying Elizabeth Kolbert's article on Greenland (Oct. 24).

I finished the article over lunch today. Interesting but also very sad in a way. After reading it, I would not invest in any waterfront property. ...
In the same issue, I also read the Hilton Als essay on the movie Moonlight (he doesn't explain the title). Apparently the film includes this piece of dialog:
"You don't talk much but you damn sure can eat."
Remind you of anything? :laugh:
