This is hard to say to a friend, but our relationship is starting to take up too much of my time. It's weird that I know more about you than I do about actual friends I hang out with in person--whom I propose we distinguish by calling "non-metafriends." In fact, I know more about you than I know about myself. I have no idea what my favorite movie or song or TV show is. Last I checked, they all involved Muppets...
...sure what to hang on your walls? Get your eye in focus with a three-day course on the art of owning art. Sotheby's Institute of Art in London, an independent spinoff of the famous auction house, combines lectures and field trips to contemporary art fairs to train would-be Saatchis in collection building, gallery economics, art investment and the growing role of art fairs themselves.

Partway through college at Sarah Lawrence, she left for Paris, presumably to study, but it was really to hang out with her then boyfriend, an Olympic champion. She waited to get married until she was "39 and 7/8," she says. "Just under the wire." It was while scouting for wedding dresses and finding nothing remotely up to snuff that her father said, "'These are really pretty ugly,'" Wang recalls...
Still, there’s a definite sell-high air around Yale, the only ranked Ivy team, right now, and letting a miserable Georgetown team hang around for four quarters last Saturday did little to inspire confidence. Cornell is the apparent buy-low counterpart, but until the Big Red figures out how to win on the road (0-4 away from Ithaca last season, 2-7 the last two), the smart money stays on the blue team...
