Oh, SmAlbany!

Daily posts and occasional longer essays about politics, culture, and life in the Capital Region...updated M-F, midmorning


"I write this not as a booster of Albany, which I am, nor an apologist for the city, which I sometimes am, but rather as a person whose imagination has become fused with a single place, and in that place finds all the elements that a man ever needs..." -W. Kennedy, from O Albany!

More break...

Ok, so I'm an idiot: Who knew that when you start sending out academic job applications, you start getting academic job interviews. Apparently not me. That means I'm spending my days trying to write job talks and practice classroom lectures. Sigh. So yes, Oh, SmAlbany will be taking a longer-than-expected break. But i promise you it will be back starting around the week of Monday, October 10th (although the entire fall schedule may be more limited - say 1 or 2 post a day instead of 3 or 4.)[You have got to be kidding me. Didn't Geisel just plea out yesterday? Didn't Soares put his foot back in his mouth again? Isn't all this right in your wheelhouse?-ed. I know, I know, trust me, no one wishes they were blogging 3,000 words/day right now more than me. Did you hear me, the Geisel case is over!?! -ed. I know, I'll have a full report next week. Geez, if i wanted that kind of reaction time, I'd read a newspaper.-ed. Ouch, low blow.]

Constructive comment: Your posts read better without all the internal dialogue stuff. Looking forward to your return.

I concur. But I wouldn't be reading this site if it wasn't good reading regardless.

October 13th, no return yet!

God, it's been like two weeks without my SmAlbany fix. I'm starting to wonder if I should get another hobby.
