Tuesday, September 09, 2003 Around & About: Has anyone else noticed the resemblance of Joe Lieberman to the Gill Man? * A Google search on the phrase "Whale Pants" returns, fittingly enough, a review of Boston College's Alumni Stadium in the top spot * How about those Eagles? * From the Collected Letters of James Thurber, this ditty teasing a socialist friend: "Love and kisses to you and/the wife and the baby, and/if they were only starving/wouldn't that be realer and/better?" * Saw the American Masters program on Elia Kazan, Arthur Miller and the Blacklist and found it compelling and fair. (See the video clip on this page of Brandeis film historian Tom Doherty criticizing those who romanticize Communism. Would the blacklisted Hollywood writers carry the same tragic appeal had they been Nazi sympathizers?) * A recently discovered manuscript left by FDR Cabinet member Robert Jackson has been published, and gives an insider's look at President Roosevelt * Fr. Sibley is asking signatures for a Priests for Celibacy Petition #
