Old Friend, New Blogger
Michael Thomas, who writes the excellent "Midas Watch" column for The New York Observer, has joined the bloggers. For a while, in 2001, Thomas wrote an equally excellent "Bush Watch" column, but for some reason it was abandoned. Anyway, blog-miners interested in smart commentary about business, politics and culture should bookmark the Midaswatch site. Thomas is as good as they get.
