free books. i haven't really checked it out too much yet, but i had dinner the other night with an editor here. i'm not so much sold on reading on my computer, but the woman who i met was downloading a chapter a day of moby dick to her iphone, which sounds like something i could get into. a chapter here and there while waiting in line somewhere or on the subway, in a taxi. i never thought reading books on anything other than paper would appeal to me, but since i am getting used to being online and emailing on my phone, it is becoming something i'm willing to think about.

When I spent some time at NARAL's blog, I ran into a bit of "Hillary or Bust" attitude. In fact, that was one commenter's handle. I went further to a web site premised on the idea the Hillary is going to be #44. That site included favorable citations of Free Republic's web site and El Gasbo, the evil radio nitwit. Now, Ferraro chimes in.

Elsewhere on the web, Quiddity floats an idea of a new sort of October surprise that might help get the hilbots over the finish line.

Great meal at WD-50 last night. First time I've been in about a year I think. The place was packed! Apparently that thrid star really helps fill the house. Thanks to the Big D for squeezing us in.

We did the tasting menu. Highlights for me were the "Eggs Benedict," the Busted Foie, and the Duck, along with several of the desserts (especially the yogurt stick thingie.)

What an amazing strange great place it is.
