Lots of good stuff this week. First, diaper-free babies. Apparently more than 50 percent of the world’s children are toilet trained before the age of 1, and a handful of Americans are catching on. It’s an interesting article, but like so many others written about childrearing, it’s a “mom-article.” The man-on-the-street interviews are all mothers. [...]

Well this is fantastic. And thanks, Georgie, for “fighting terrorism.” The war in Iraq has clearly improved things for all of us. I would invite him to accompany me on the very crowded subway to and from school tomorrow. Because the world is a safer place thanks to this war, right?
