Doo-Dad Dept.
“I write doo-dads because it's a doo-dad kinda town,” Dorothy Parker once purred. Or at least Jennifer Jason Leigh purred while pretending to be Parker in Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle.
I’ve never found the “quote” outside of the movie (though Leigh’s take on the transatlantic accent followed her to the fifth season of Fargo). That said, I do think we live in a doo-dad kinda moment, to wit, a doo-dad kinda of newsletter.
Note: A complete archive of the previous iteration of this newsletter lives at dhowell.com/blog.
But from here on, this newsletter is all about brief, punchy items, pointing to longer, punchier items. …Do you hear a boxing bell?
