		<description><![CDATA[	Sorry for the lack of posts. I&#8217;ve been preparing for and having guests, plus too much work. But I did manage to submit the following essay proposal, which was positively received. Now I&#8217;ve got to write the thing. Eeeek! 
	Omar Little, a character on the television show The Wire, lives a life of extreme precariousness. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	In many ways, The Wire&#8217;s Omar Little is a reprise of an old type of movie hero, one from the 1940s, especially noir and detective movies of that era &#8212; the silver-tounged and deceptively intelligent characters usually played by actors like Bogart and Mitchum. In fact, I&#8217;d say a good deal of Omar&#8217;s allure for [...]]]></description>

	Our world, our old world that we have inhabited for the last 12,000 years, has ended, even if no newspaper in North America or Europe has yet printed its scientific obituary.

The last two movies my kids rented, The Bee Movie and Ratatouille, have revolved almost exclusively around questions of work and its relationship to life (to the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	While I&#8217;ve been working through most of Faulkner&#8217;s novels &#8212; the latest was Light in August, which lacks the formal inventiveness of his most famous books but, especially in its exposition of race in the interwar South, is as good as The Sound and the Fury and As I Lay Dying &#8212; I&#8217;ve also been [...]]]></description>

The mansion, which sits just across the street from the Capitol, has been, over the last few days, [...]]]></description>
