FYI: Morrell's Restaurant review from today's Diner's Journal. Wine's the thing, some good deals to be found.
I don't think I've ever written a fan letter before but I just wrote one to Sen. Robert Bryd.
We want to know what our resident golf-lover thinks about Annika vs. "the guys".
The NY Post has a package of iPod stories dominating the entertainment section today. No news, but this sort of buzz must make Apple happy. Fittingly, the online paper doesn't include the hardcopy's "opinion" piece by pseudo-reactionary fop Jared Paul Stern, wherein he rails about geeks losing touch with the "real world". He's also found out about "something vaguely disgusting sounding called 'blogging'", which he identifies with "self-absorbed, gibbering baboons who obviously never leave the confines of their Dumbo studios." He does like gawker though, perhaps because, like him, they proudly wallow in their own snarkyness. (How's that for an ugly word, or is it snarkiness?) Anyway, it's the sort of criticism that's only leveled at success.

Meme this!
My goal with "Dr. P's Words ..." is to create an exo-toxic meme. As a personality, he's a bit inside the beltway, but breaking Rove, Wolfowitz, etc. into mass culture, revealing the men behind the curtain, should be a goal of anti-neos. Just yesterday David S. Broder advised in an oped that his friend Rove keep a low profile.
The good doc's words made a little headway towards meme-dom today with a link from bartcop E!

ALBERT WOHLSTETTER, R.I.P.
In Monday’s Wall Street Journal, editor Robert L. Bartley took note of Wohlstetter’s death by reprinting a 1991 account of his long association with Wohlstetter. It gave only hints of the extraordinary role Albert played during the most critical years of the Cold War, which was then just coming to an end. It did point out that two of the most public men of the last three decades who have been identified with shaping strategic counterforce policy, Richard Perle and Paul Wolfowitz, were Albert’s protégés. If you would connect the dots to others who were under Wohlstetter’s spell, you would soon find the late Senator Henry (Scoop) Jackson, Senator Robert Dole, and in London, Margaret Thatcher. For all practical purposes, every editorial on America’s geopolitical strategy that appeared in The Wall Street Journal during the last 25 years was the product of Albert’s genius. If Henry Kissinger was the principal leader of the "dove team" in foreign policy over much of this period, stressing diplomatic strategems, Wohlstetter was the undisputed leader of the "hawk team," which stressed military moves of breathtaking creativity and imagination.
