Gleanings: Alice Munro, Similes and Little Green Footballs
- The NYT political blog has a list of of laments about the election from the readers of conservative blog Little Green Footballs. LGF of course is having none of it.
- Jewschool post on rioting during Jerusalem Gay Pride Parade. Had anyone heard about this?
- Renowned short story author Alice Munro says she will be retiring from writing after the publiciation of her two new collections (via Bookdwarf).
- The Oakland A’s have all but said out loud that they will be leaving Oakland and moving further down Highway 880 to Freemont. What sad news for the city of Oakland.
- Similepedia: “is a new wiki site that helps a literature-loving community collect, categorize and comment on similes from prose, poetry, essays and other works.” It’s a niche but a good one.
