Raking Muck in the Third Millenium

I used to have a sign over my desk in a newspaper office long ago, in Gothic script it read Rake Some Muck Today. In today's world, raking muck is something of a lost art. I may not be able to singlehandedly bring it back, but this is a start.

Good Night Suite Prints

The Lexicographic Irregulars are mourning today. The Language Mavin is no more. William Safire, political pundit, Republican raconteur, wizardly writer and all-time lover of the all things alliterative. Even those of us far to the left of Safire politically appreciate his brilliance, wisdom, workplay and that adorable crush he had on Susan Molinari. The beauty, the perfection of the English language and the hearts of all who love it are broken tonight. Good night Bill.
