found a milanese photoblog while searching for something about the modigliani exhibit in milan last year. she's got cool pictures. especially the last six, which are from the no. 24 tram, my second home when i lived in italy.

ps: and then this one of venice and this one of tuscany.

if you really feel like you want to involuntarily throw up today, go on and read this column by jonah goldberg.

i really need to go back to my exclusive policy of puppies and alcohol. i can no longer physically stand the way people keep finding ways to justify the manner in which our country and this war is being run. puppies and alcohol. puppies and alcohol. puppies and alcohol.

anyway, tommy is gone in vermont until tuesday, so if you feel like buying me a puppy/buying me a drink, let me know.
