Meta-Blogging is the discussion of blogging itself on a blog. Like this.
I keep forgetting to read the "comments" hidden under the "comments" link under each post. I guess I was thinking that a comment might just become a post that replied to an existing post, though I'm not sure how that would work in a Blog. Maybe there is a way in HTML to make a "reply" to a post appear as a new post that indicates this refers to or is "in reply to, or regarding Blah-BlahBlah"?
No foam fingers please... Security is tighter than any event in history, and the Superbowl scheduled for Sunday in New Orleans has broken up what has always been 12 days of continuous Mardi Gras "Krewe" parades according to this story: "When Bacchanals Collide" But the N.O. crowd is coping. "I mean, we can handle it, I guess. We're resilient; this is New Orleans. But how are we just going to wait for days and days until the next parade? We need our fix."
. . . And the New Thinking About Money Is That Your Irrationality Is Predictable. This story in the Washington Post describes "The Compromise Effect" and other strange and predictable ways people think about and handle money and how we assign value to things.
Not that I'm feeling especially mercenary, but the thought of 76,791 people in the Superdome paying $400 per seat for next week's game has me doing math. At face value that's a take of $30.7 millions on the gate alone. At the $1000 and up that tickets are now going for, that takes the number up to $76 millions or so.
