Just curious

Did everyone get through Day 1 of having to pay for the online version of the New York Times Op-Ed section okay? I made it through the day just fine, but if I really wanted to Chinese water torture myself, I suppose I could spend what remains of tonight telling myself that I couldn't have read Paul Krugman today if I'd wanted to. (Um, unless I bought a print copy of the NYT or shelled out for TimesSelect.)

Yet Krugman's column is still the fifth most e-mailed NYT article today, as of 10:45 p.m. Interesting. To me, at least. And maybe Mis Hooz.

Here's a funny take on this from Gawker.

Carry on.
