  15. At nat'l book awards: Andy Borowitz just said Novelist and Blacksmith are the same, no "growth industries". Publishing=self-hate?

  17. O'Reilly asks Dobbs: "Barack Obama: the devil?" http://tiny.cc/X7wm5 No real joke about this. How to parody something impervious to humor?

  19. RT @nyrbclassics "Lévi-Strauss fled Vichy on same ship as Serge, Breton and Seghers"-- Good trivia to drop if you want people to say: "Who?"
