"NEW YORK, NR [Jonah Goldberg]
I popped in to National Review's international headquarters, based in NYC, yesterday (which is why I failed to post to the Corner). I really should show up more than once every year or so. The place is so, so whacky. Why, when I showed up Michael Potemra and Ramesh Ponnuru were huddled together conspiring to do something. Before I could say "What's up?" I heard Potemra insist in a loud whisper: "Let's water-balloon Brookhiser! He has to pay for saying Charles Fourier directly influenced the Fabian Socialists! The mad fool!" But before they could act out their dastardly plan, Brookhiser burst into the hallway with a can of silly-string in each fist and drenched the conspirators, cackling "You dare doubt me! Hah ha ha!" Meanwhile, Lowry missed all of the shenanigans because he was busy showing the interns how to shotgun a beer.
Good times, good times."
