Veritastic

Now I know this is not interesting to most people in the world, but Harvard President Larry Summers resigned today.

Last night was a total shitstorm of speculation and rumor on the Harvard lists and blogs. It reminded me of how self-important we were on the college newspaper I worked on, and we didn't even have digital media to feed the frenzy, though we did type extra hard and loud when we were feeling flirty with our fellow editors in the newsroom, late at night.

Anyway, I kept up with the blogging till midnight, then went to bed, feeling a little Christmas-eve-y.

Poor Larry. But not really. He is only 50-something, just married, he can have a whole new career in big business, where bitchy poetry professors won't undermine him in public.

And speaking of whole new careers: the latest speculation/fantasy is that Bill Clinton will be the new president of Harvard. Oh my gawd. How sexy would that be?
