Week in Review
This is a calling from the Age of Aquarius. It doesn't matter if you're a run-away bride or a murdering hottie or an extra in The Hangover. If someone just farted, it might be Lebron James. To wit:
On the plus side, you can came back from this. As the poet wrote, "The mind of sinner isn't all that different from the mind of a saint." I was the poet in this apocalyphral saying, which you will soon find yourselves coming across in Bartlett's. (I ransomed Bartlett's daughter.)
This week was about going to those places. To challenge yourself intellectually, you can look forward to reading our Summer Reading coverage, and we can look forward to the return of the One Week Only phenomenon when our coverage of a certain Jewish comedian hits your RSS readers.

- Molly entered paradise, which looked like a library.
- We found sustenance in the perspective of our own self-portrait.
- Tyler evaluated the potential of the so-called nice guy.

- The poetry of Frank O'Hara paid what was owed.
Was I to have made this far journey, only to find the very thing which I had fled?
