via NPR, some audio linky bits...

hey dere-
goshdarned american public (particularly those republican types) making me very very nervous with their gullibility and essential stupidity...

some interesting stuff to share w/thee via Fresh Air on NPR:
someone you may be familiar with, Thomas L. Friedman, speaking about his latest book, Hot, Flat, & Crowded in this interview. Whilst ourowndamnedself has had plenty of occasion to take issue with some of Mr. Friedman's opinions in the past, we like a lot of what we heard about this book.
also from NPR recently, another well known author, a certain Bob Woodward, speaks about his latest work, The War Within, providing some not-so-surprising-insights into white house shenanigans alongside further revelations regarding the incompetence of a certain head of state via this interview.
Extra added NPR Fresh Air bonus, same show that brought us the B. Woodward interview, some good stuff on vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson & the reissue of his 1971 Blue Note/EMI album, Head On.

y'all maintain an even strain now, best ye can...

Oops - hows that for odd, that we'd both be typing about T. Friedman at the same time? Love and kisses.
