Fyi: I’ll be at Ithaca College tomorrow night giving a speech on Bush and the war on terror at 7:30 p.m. at the Park Auditorium in the Roy H. Park School of Communications. It’s open to the public. Then, I’m going to devote my Wednesday morning to a fierce assault on Ithaca-area trout streams.

By the way, to follow up on a week or two ago. Truman State was great. I had as good a time as anyone could possibly have in Kirksville, Missouri, which is 300 miles from anywhere. The students were great. Also, Brown University was fun. The students in the audience were polite and truly engaged–I was shocked! (I didn’t mention that a staple of my speech used to be a comparison between the lifestyles of matriarchal, vegetarian, bi-sexual bonobos and of Brown University students.)
