I'm really not in the mood to write anything, so go read some other people.

I recommend:
Eurotrash on New York Man (When a NYM is introduced to you, he shakes your hand, looks at you longingly with those gorgeous sparkling eyes and instantly rates you in comparison with every other female resident in his temporary hunting ground);

This Isn't London on the newly cleaned St Paul's (- it's a little-known fact, but the West Front is hinged to allow the entry and exit of giant crabs. Why Wren specified this is rather mysterious, but nevertheless the hinges have been oiled and that annoying squeak has gone);

and Keiran Healy on Crooked Timber on the opinions of Richard Posner as expressed on the Becker-Posner blog* (The real Richard Posner is one of the preeminent legal minds of our time, so he can hardly be responsible for this. For one thing, parody of this quality is pretty difficult to write and I don’t think he has the time to devote to the task); each of which brought a small bit of light into my life on what's otherwise been a pretty shite day.

*I've never been convinced by the "Law and Economics" approach anyway.
