Semi-Contemporaneous Observations. Beans.

Lobster is for lovers!! Get 2 lobster rolls, 2 Maine microbrews, 2 pickles, 2 chips and a chowda to share for $40 today through 2/17! (Maine Root instead of beer = $36)

Alright folks. In Boston, you root for The New England Patriots, and you eat New England clam chowder, the white kind. But Luke’s is in Manhattan, where we root for the Giants, and where we eat Manhattan clam chowder, the red kind. That said, we’re calling this a DEAL for the simple reason that the lobster rolls rock and if you’re someone who actually “likes” this soup you’ll save $8. But still. Something’s not right about this. Stay tuned for a emergency BAD DEAL RULE to be issued within the coming minutes. 

Better dead than red, Sutton.

‘Shake It Like a Salt Shaker’: Bounce Music Defies Labels in New Orleans

Warning: The music is addictive and the dancing explicit.

Sissy bounce makes me proud to be an American.

Until Katy Perry discovers it.

Yesterday, My Brother’s Book, Maurice Sendak’s tribute to his brother, Jack, was posthumously published. Says Tony Kushner, “I really feel that the book is a goodbye from him to everybody who loved him—which was a lot of people.”

And here is our interview with Sendak, which is among the most personally effecting interviews in our archive. At least for us.

Currently listening to the linked interview with Sendak.  We tend to focus on his cantankerous, irascible interviews because, well, it’s fun to watch a curmudgeon tear down the world.  This interview is different, though.  He’s open and positive and thoughtful and poetic.  He cries multiple times, or maybe he never really stops crying.  It’s great and something I’ll be thinking about for a while.
