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!

TU headline...

Above the fold, below the radar: Take a guess at the subject matter of today's TU, Page A1, above the fold, lead story? Go ahead.

Bush and his flood speech? Nope.
Something on the primary elections? Nope.
A break in the Geisel or Porco case? I wish.

Instead, we get this:

Age-old question's gray area

Nevermind that the headline makes limited sense. It's a story about old people in the world of entertainment- Andre Agassi, the Rolling Stones, etc!

Hey, fellas - I know the 'Stones are comign to town, but bury this somewhere in the Life-Scene section next time, ok? [yeah, like you have any clue what normal people think is worthy of spending a lot of time talking about. -ed. Well, I write for a niche audience. Is that how you explain your pathetic hit numbers?-ed. No, they are a result of me being a true artiste - few people understand me in my own time. That's for sure. -ed. Shut up.]

Well, maybe the TU is just sympathetic to old greying relics that are still at it...[cheap shot. -ed. But just soooo necessary.]
