Thanks to the unnamed donor

Friday, June 29th, 2007

I just received a book in the mail with no sign of whom sent it.

It’s a new book from one of my favorite professors at Cornell, so whomever sent it had a nice thought. Thanks!

Update: turns out that the book is a gift from Robert Frank himself, as a thank you for using an essay a question of mine in the book. Go to the index and you’ll see “Tingleff, Sam, 61.” While I’m sure that he’s just out for a good review on my high traffic web site, sorry! I’m holding out for 5% of the royalties.

Want to read it? Buy the book! Preferably using this link right here… Enough of those and I just might earn my rightful share.

Not all that surprising, really

From the nyt: omg my mom joined facebook. I feel old… I’m not on facebook or myspace. Wait, maybe I’m just leading edge.

Happy birthday Penni
