Mad Magazine will publish a 2-page spread of political cartoons--by Pulitzer Prize winners--on the topic of "Why George W. Bush is in Favor of Global Warming." I loved Mad when I was kid.

How will you cover this? Perhaps as Verne Gay did for Newsday. Step one: Find young people who will claim they get their news from The Daily Show. Avoid anyone who claims something more complicated.

Steve Kirks had tried to start a bloggers' group some months before I arrived in Springfield (early summer 2004). I made the same attempt when I blew into town because I wanted to make new friends and learn the local culture, of which I was now a part. John Stone, 62, died yesterday of an apparent heart attack. He was the writer of Curbstone Critic. John came to that second meeting and was a stalwart and regular ever since. ...
