We think that's likely due to the band […]
- A Look at My U2 Framed Album Cover Wall (PHOTOS) May 22, 2012How would you like to have a wall in your house covered with perfectly framed U2 album cover art?

- The Resource Miracle May 22, 2012[Note: This essay appeared in the May 28, 2012, edition of TIME magazine.] It's become the go-to cliché of modern economics. Natural resources are a "curse." When a nation is over-reliant on one or two commodities like oil or precious minerals, corrupt government ministers and their dodgy associates hoard profits and taxes instead of properly […]

Yes, someone put some effort into editing it. It’s not too hard to edit video today. Programs like iMovie are super simple to use.

Cool video! Four years ago I lived in Maida Vale, a neighborhood near Abbey Road, for a summer. One day I was out for an evening stroll and, as I crossed a street, I happened to look up the road. I saw “the” crosswalk, or zebra crossing as they call it. And I knew instantly what it was – even though there are a million zebra crossings in the city, and I don’t even OWN Abbey Road and I’m not a huge Beatles aficionado. That’s how indelible that image is. I can’t wait to see the pictures.

WOW – looks pretty unscripted to me, not a whole lotta people around. What an excellent sighting that would have been, not to mention Frank Black as well on his cell phone making commentary…

Elmo – Would never dream of making fun of His Blackness. As a longtime fan of the Pixies and his solo career, I have much luv for his work. Was trying to add to the levity and chaos I saw in the clip with the FB comment. Deeply sorry if I offended you. I’ll stay quiet next time…
