"If You Get Caught Between the Moon and New York City"

There is a full moon in New York tonight.

I saw the movie Arthur with my brother Eric in Madison, Connecticut, in 1981. Twenty-eight years – doesn't seem that long ago.

Here is Eric on CNN this week:

V. cool, as Eric would say. I'm v. proud.

BB,

As soon as I saw the title, the theme from Arthur flooded my head. Thanks for that pleasure.

How impressive -- your brother works for Media Matters. I have long admired that organization and the work they do. And I'm in complete agreement with your brother's analysis of the press. (Regrettably, the CNN anchor conducted this more like a debate than an interview). In my humble opinion, your brother's correct in his assessment of a double standard during the Bush administration.

The press has been negligent for years and they know it, which is why they're now sharpening their knives.

I have Media Matters in my bookmarks (and Salon.com as well)and check it about three times a week. Love them. You mother must be so proud of you all.
