Yo Blair

Iowahawk is consistently funny and spot on. I've clicked through a zillion times now, wishing and waiting and hoping to read his take on "Yo Blair".

He's printed this touching story about a plumber being sexually harrassed:

"After such speeches, a young plumber will come up to me—in Bayside, in South Jamaica, in Flushing—in tears: A client harassed me, he’ll say. I tried to tell the union grievance board, but they told me it is my word against hers, and that I should get shirts with longer tails. I won’t get another job if I do anything about it. My 3 o'clock service call wouldn't signed the check until I show her my beer gut. I can’t sleep, I can't bowl. What should I do?"

He's got the details of some crazy fridge magnet competition here.

He found a rough draft of a letter by Juan Cole in a dumpster:

"The reason for Hitchens' theft and publication of my private IM chat is that I object to the characterization of Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as having "threatened to wipe Israel off the map." I object to this translation of what he said on two grounds. First, it gives the impression that he wants to play Hitler to Israel's Poland, mobilizing an armored corps to move in and kill people. Second, even if it were true, Hitchens acts like that’s bad or something."

No public figure is safe. I can't wait.
