Turning and turning in the widening gyre

Naperville Public Library Books

Naperville Public Library Books January 31st, 2007 @ 5:58 am PST

When I got to the office today there was a package sitting on my desk. I received my sixth copy of Gregg Easterbrook‘s “The Progress Paradox: How Life Gets Better While People Feel Worse” — I keep giving them away! — via Amazon’s used book marketplace. The book is in near-perfect condition, perhaps because it […]

NFLN Fumbles

NFLN Fumbles January 2nd, 2007 @ 3:21 pm PST

I was in football nirvana this weekend. I watched no less than a dozen games — college and pro — since I left the office Friday night. The best by far was last night’s Boise State / Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl, one of the top ten football games I’ve ever seen. While watching Saturday night’s Giants […]

Correction of the Year

Correction of the Year December 20th, 2005 @ 11:24 am PST

Actual correction from last week’s San Francisco Chronicle: “A story about mathematical references mistakenly said that 1,782 to the 12th power plus 1,841 to the 12th power equals 1,922 to the 12th power. Actually, 1,782 to the 12th power plus 1,841 to the 12th power equals 2,541,210,258,614, 589,176,288,669,958,142,428,526,657 while 1,922 to the 12th power equals […]

Um! Yah! Yah!

Um! Yah! Yah! October 4th, 2005 @ 12:14 pm PDT

This week’s Tuesday Morning Quarterback includes a delicious link to college football’s funniest fight song. It also includes the best football commentary on the web, and a little bit about that lovable V’Ger, from the first Star Trek movie.

Gregg Easterbrook

Gregg Easterbrook December 4th, 2002 @ 2:56 pm PST

Penthouse Error

Penthouse Error October 30th, 2002 @ 7:40 am PST

Last spring Penthouse magazine, after announcing the publication of topless photos of Anna Kournikova, had to pay a judgment and issue an apology to model Judith Soltesz-Benetton, the woman really in the pictures. On Miami Beach, Soltesz-Benetton had been seeking a suntan without lines when she was glimpsed by Frank Ramaesiri, a vacationing salesman from […]

Bledsoe = Tough

Bledsoe = Tough October 30th, 2002 @ 7:28 am PST

It took Drew Bledsoe exactly two games to have the best passing day in 43 years of Buffalo Bills history. Bledsoe threw for 463 yards, three touchdowns and no picks against Minnesota, a bigger single-game yardage total than any compiled by Bills Hall of Famer Jim Kelly or Pro Bowl QBs Jack Kemp, Joe Ferguson […]

TMQ

TMQ January 9th, 2002 @ 12:20 am PST

Another terrific excerpt from the Tuesday Morning Quarterback: In the NFL there are high-scoring 45-42 games and low-scoring 13-9 games; games that feature the pass and games that feature the run; there are games where teams try wild things and games when teams go conservative; there are games decided by a few sudden big breaks […]

TMQ

TMQ November 28th, 2001 @ 1:20 am PST

There is a guy named Gregg Easterbrook writing for the sports section of Slate.com. Gregg runs a mailing list called TMQ – Tuesday Morning Quarterback. If you are a football fan you should go with much haste and abandon to join the list. He is hysterical and brilliant. Every Tuesday night you’ll receive a wonderful […]
