Post-Thanksgiving links! Enjoy the long weekend! I’m off to Philadelphia for my 20-year high-school reunion. (Or maybe not. I’m feeling lousy with the beginnings of the same cold that knocked my wife out last week, and it’d be dumb to run myself down and get heavy-duty sick right at the end of a week-long vacation. Grr.)

Last night, I had dinner with pals in Brooklyn and walked in the door at 1:15 a.m. (at least 40 minutes of my lateness was due to a two-car collision in the Lincoln Tunnel and two separate construction zones near the Meadowlands that turned magically turned three lanes of Rt. 3 into one). This morning, I drive down to suburban Philadelphia to deliver a flatscreen TV to the winner of a raffle at my annual conference. Because my publisher doesn’t want it to get damaged in shipping.
So while you read these links, I’ll be cruising along the highway, checking out the foliage, trying to stay awake, and wondering how this ever became part of my job description.
Oh, just click “more”!

You don’t wanna know. Now the conference is over, but I’m still pounding out pages for the October issue. On top of that, I’ve either got poison ivy, shingles, or . . . neck-AIDS!
But you just want some fun links to check out, huh? Well, just click “more”!

Home at last
Last year, one of my Montaigne posts included his description of his library, which is one of the few things in life I’m envious of.
But now the New York Observer tells me it can all be ours — on Central Park West, no less — for a mere $7.5 million!
Seriously, go over to the architect’s site and check out the pix of this gorgeous duplex. Then send me money so I can buy the place. I promise I’ll let you come over.
(But I bet the co-op board has a “No dogs” policy. Grr.)
