(11:25 AM) | F. Winston Codpiece III:
The Pervasive Odor of The New Yorker
Appropriately, this week's issue -- a "special" issue devoted to this periodical's inimitable cartoons, though not yet a "very special" issue that no parent should miss -- features, at minimum, two scent samples, one for each gender. Their marketing department has finally caught up with what has long been our deepest cultural intuition: namely, that nothing says "glamour" like a Chris Ware cover.(An aside: Does it seem to anyone else that Seymour Hersh will be deeply disappointed if Bush doesn't invade Iran -- to the point of either suicide or, more likely, attempting to start the war himself?)
