Jeff’s/Good Grape Note: I’m on a 10 day sabbatical from writing Good Grape posts, returning over the weekend of June 16th/17th
In lieu of wine-related posts, I’m taking the opportunity to pull a page from the, “To know a man, look at his bookshelf” school of thought, but instead of my bookshelf, I’m highlighting an RSS feed a day that I keep up with that is non wine-related--grist for the mill, so to speak.
See you back, recharged, invigorated with headspace de-gunked in about a week.
The Blog: Slate Magazine
Site URL: http://www.slate.com/
What I like about the site: One of the first online magazine’s, Slate looks at news, culture and politics through a slightly liberal lense, but I trust it as a companion piece to mainstream NPR to look at stories and the context behind stories in the way that I want to understand them, without a lot of spin and with an emphasis on the human element.
