Happy Wall Fall Day

NaBloPoMo Day 9: Though I may be accused of nepotistic applause, I'd say that M.'s post about her memories of the day the Wall fell can't be topped in this subject category, though there are plenty of mawkish, bloviating, and/or simply boring opinion pieces, collected by Arts and Letters Daily, which may be considered by their authors to be in the running. Today's NY Times has two particularly bad op-eds on "what it all meant" by authors whose by-lines should automatically induce a view askance. Douthat's is dumb, and Zizek's, well, does it actually say anything in the end?

Stick with M.
