...The One-Minute Pundit

I've come up with a new EDDIEISM: roving Dixieland bands! Today there was a not-all-that-good one on South Street, playing the same tunes over and over and over ("You Are My Sunshine", "When the Saints Go Marching In"), and I thought to myself, RENDELLISTS are always selling this city as THE CAPITAL OF MUSIC (never mind that practically all the music was made long ago), so why not have three or four roving Dixieland bands tooting for the tourists to entice them into spending more money at our INTERNATIONALLY ACCLAIMED RESTAURANTS to help pay for more of the waiters and janitors and dishwashers and cooks who'll move our city into the 21ST-CENTURY ECONOMY!

It can't be worse than RENDELLMINIUMS as a force for economic "growth."
