Read it. And Weep.

Hey you! Yeah YOU. Over there, spying my blog when you're supposed to be working. What is it that you want from me? Embarrassing stories? Righteous polemic? Pictures of shirtless dudes? What? WHAT?

I got nothing. The well's dried up. Blogtacularity has gone the way of blog mediocrity. I just watched "Adaptation," which is a really great movie. Also saw Bourne Supremacy. And as brutally hot as Matt Damon is...

Here I was looking for a Matt Damon picture on IMDB to supplement my story, when I see that he's in post production on a movie called "Imperial Life in the Emerald City." I am aghast. That's a book written by Washington Post reporter/former Baghdad bureau chief Rajiv Chandrasekaran about first years after the United States invaded Iraq. So I'm asking myself, "How do you make that shit into a movie with Matt Damon?"

Here's how. I haven't read the book, but the CPA and reconstruction in Iraq sounds like a Monty Python script. For those of you the least bit inclined, read the interview. Starts a couple paragraphs down.

(Narayanan: Is he giving me the finger?)
