THE COMEDY OF ERRANDS. That’s what my day turned into. Totally unavoidable, work-stops-until-this-stuff-happens-type errands. So I’m a bit behind the eight-ball (although I have a spiffy new keyboard and mouse!). A bit more tomorrow; for now, why don’t you read this Volokh Conspirator’s post on agricultural subsidies? Told me some stuff I didn’t know, reignited my simmering loathing of these subsidies, and pointed me toward what looks to be an excellent NYT series.

Tomorrow: comics, sex, maybe something on what America looks like from the outside–you know, the usual. Also, if you have read Amy Chua’s World on Fire and have an opinion on it, why not drop me a line? I’ll be reviewing it this week.
