電報をもらいまして大変を世話になります。*お辞儀*

I don't where to post this so I'll just do it here:
I mentioned your blog on Midori Hirano's mixi 日記 and people started discussing it a bit, maybe you should check it out. Here:
http://mixi.jp/view_diary.pl?id=13408193&owner_id=118864

She was writing about the Gaba ads, and if you scroll down to the last comments you can read people talking about Neomarxisme (and the ads as well).

A Pulitzer Prize winner this week found out Western Union actually does exist.

I hope doesn't really look like that photo.

Jaquiss won, making today was only the fifth time an alternative newsweekly beat out well-established dailies to win a Pulitzer Prize.

That cringe-making sentence appeared in an article about the Pulitzer Prize for journalism, in a journal for Editors and Publishers. America is doomed.

For once, Momus, I have personal evidence of how full of shit is your anti-American jokery. When one intern (me) or one editor makes a mistake in one building in New York, clearly, the United States is headed for ruin. As soon as a Scot, a Briton, a Japanese makes a typo, it's doom for their domains as well!

I'd like to note that at Editor & Publisher (where I work on a weird, temporary basis) we had the Pulitzer winners accurately reported 11 minutes after the results were released in a room uptown, and within three and a half hours, three of us had written six stories about the winners. Give it a rest on the misplaced "was." For the record, the magazine itself will print a completely different version of that story.
