This Friday, I’ll be leaving my home country of Kenya to visit England for this conference. I’ve never been to England and am a nervous traveler, so you can do the math: I’m not sure what to do for the five days I’ll be there without a conference to hold my hand. In other words, […]

Scott already covered the awful news, but if anyone is worth a follow-up post, it’s Alex Chilton. Like most of my contemporaries, I came to admire Alex Chilton through his professional admirer
The noise from the right about the constitutionality of “deeming” beggars description. Consider Limbaugh: If [House Democrats] pass this using the Slaughter solution—in other words, lite
