Best news for 2010: Thomas Friedman on leave

"As I’m about to start a four-month book leave."  Four month only?  No way. Please make it four years? Or Four decades, better yet.  Make it indefinite, while you are at it.  We are expecting a great book from you: another book in the same league with Hegel's Phenomenology of Mind.  Oh, yeah. That is the only reason why I want you to extend your leave.  Oh, yeah.
