This Must Be the Place…
Excellent essay by James Varini on the cultural relevance of the Talking Heads (one of my favorite bands) with special attention to my favorite song of all time, “This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody) in this week’s New Yorker. Definitely worth your time; and I’m going to have to read that Lethem book.

I have to say where I come from the preschool bithdray party circuit is pretty competitive. And I hate when parents do over the top goody bags. The kids just want junk and it just makes all the other parents feel inadequate when they can’t ponie up for a deluxe goody bag.We went to a party at the American Girl Doll store and the parents gaven each attendee an American Girl as their party favor. Kind of obnoxious.
