DS and I leave for our European boondoggle tomorrow, so get used to this week’s pattern of very little posting.
Photos from the trip might get posted from time to time, but you’re better off checking my Flickr. Drop me an email (picablog on gmail) for the link.
Reasons why DS is the best include, but are not limited to the following:
What is really depressing is that very few people with PhDs in, say, humanities or social sciences make $1555/week. (I sure as hell don’t, DS doesn’t. Department chairs might.) Yes, the general picture stays the same if you create two tiers of folks with doctoral degrees, but this picture is somewhat misleading.
Plus, what about those under-employed people—folks with college or advanced degrees doing retail work.

I’ve been wanting to take a picture of this mural at a pet shop in West LA for weeks now. Obama, holding a lizard and proffering a turtle, standing in some alien landscape, the slogan behind him: “Forget About Politics. Support Small Business.”
