Okay, okay. In response to this post , my in-box is full of angry brickbats from readers who liked the made-for-tv Shining movie. Apparently, King hated the Kubrick version -- which I think was one of the few Kubrick movies that wasn't overrated! -- and he, and quite a few King fans, think the miniseries was a more faithful adaptation of the book. Noted. Perhaps my curmudgeonly attitude is attributable...

What an awful, awful idea. I had to look up something about The Shining and found out they made a remake with Steven Weber (the goofy ladies' man from Wings) in the Jack Nicholson role and Rebecca De Mornay in the Shelley Duvall part. Melvin Van Peeples picks up the torch from Scatman Crothers. It's like one of those fake movies Bill Murray previews at the beginning of Scrooged. Like this one: The...

There were a lot of dirty tricks on TV this week. Jo Reynolds (Daphne Zuniga) cajoled poor Riley into posing topless on Melrose Place. House and Foreman conducted an autopsy on a living person. Gossip Girl's Chuck kissed a guy because of Blair's deception. CSI: Miami's Eric Delko tricked us all by slinking off into the night with barely any explanation. Welcome to this week's Top Moments: Dirty Tricks...

For awhile now I've been saying that economists should be paying attention to open-source and other commons-based models of production. How often does a radically new way to organize production come along, after all? It seems like academic economists should be studying the hell out of it. There are some books by Yochai Benkler and Steven Weber but they barely scratch the surface. I was making this...

Posting for posterity of record. Steven Weber: GOP Pisses Off World; Wins Prize!. Welcome to the new world order where isolationism is as fusty a notion as fairness and balance. Actions on the local level reverberate so globally that even the pissy little nyah-nyah-nyahing which the right wing Republicons persist in using as their chief mode of [...]

When Norway's Nobel Committee awarded its Peace Prize to Barack Obama, they hit America's right-wing zealots with egg in the face. Here's how Steven Weber put it at Huffpo : As the predictable mobs of crypto-racist/sexually repressed obstructionists coagulate around the recipient, the Norwegian Nobel committee has acted unilaterally and struck a blow for the rest of humanity. The big tent Republicon...
