I've been (re-)reading and (re-)listening to Hodgmanalia recently (in part due to the mention of <a href="http://www.maximumfun.org/shows/judge-john-hodgman">Judge John Hodgman</a> in <a href="http://www.metafilter.com/103615/WTF-has-totally-sold-out-to-The-Man-Totally">this thread</a>), and stumbled across his <a href="http://www.psychologytoday.com/articles/200701/apologia-my-second-child">letter to his second child</a>. It's four years old, but I had never seen it before. It has a sweet solitude and observations such as "The only child in a family without want is the apex of Western civilization.". (High risk of being a double, I know, but I couldn't find it on Metafilter) tag:metafilter.com,2011:site.103650 Wed, 18 May 2011 16:42:43 -0800 hodgman hodgmina johnhodgman onlychild benito.strauss
