Whether you agree with Lileks or not, you gotta admit he's a great writer.  I love it he gets self deprecating.

"Did I forget anything this week? Personal tales of no great import, laden with sodden nostalgia: check. Shallow takes on pop culture: check, and check. Grim axe-grinding polemic I should have paid people to wade through? Oh, indeed, check. Matchbook?

No! Until now. Check. See you Monday. "

Yeah, this has been a week of pretty good bleats.  I miss the Gnat/Target stories when he goes out of town, though.  I've never been to Fargo, but it sounds a lot like my hometown, and it makes me nostalgic.

I loved that Erin and I had exactly the same discussion about the news coverage of the blackout. They were really disappointed.

Also, I learned this week that Lileks and I have the same birthday
