Interesting. Was there any discussion of the wisdom of running presidential campaigns, vs. starting further down the foodchain, with city- and state-level contests? Doug

17215 [lbo-talk] Jon Stewart misbehaves -- rank: 1000
New York Post [Page Six] - October 2, 2005 WRONG 'SHOW' FOR MAG EXECS JON Stewart was the wrong pick to emcee the Magazine Publishers of America panel at Lincoln Center featuring Graydon Carter (Vanity Fair), Jim Kelly (Time), Kate White (Cosmopolitan) and Dave Zinczenko (Men's Health). The "Daily Show" host was derisive and insulting. "He went to a dark place," said one magazine exec. Stewart asked Zinczenko, "Do all the men on the cover have to be - what's the word - g ...

17217 [lbo-talk] Pigbag -- rank: 1000
I closed my radio show the other week with Pigbag's 1981 song, "Papa's Got A Brand New Pigbag," a digitized version of a 7" I got when it first came out. Now I find it's a bit of a classic, with remixes and everything. I have one question though: what's a pigbag? The band took its name because the founder liked to carry one. Doug
