I worked with Matt when he was president of the Northern Liberties Neighbors Association (NLNA) and I served as executive director. Northern Liberties has been ground zero for redevelopment in recent years, and Matt was not afraid to stand up to developers, including the biggest in town, Bart Blatstein.
Floyd Landis bonked big-time today in the Tour de France, losing ten minutes to the stage winner and falling to 23rd place overall.
Following the retirement of Lance Armstrong and the disqualification of the top contenders, the Tour lacks a boss or patron to impose order on the peleton, making it much harder to predict what will happen next.
Which suggests a metaphor for the current state of the world.
