    Sorry About the Daily Figure

    DateTuesday, July 8, 2008 at 05:52PM

    Our dear Figarist, if you asked for the Daily Figure and wonder why you haven’t received it, the reasons are purely technical—which, in Figaro’s case, means insurmountable.  He is unable to figure out how to get past spam.

    We’re also sorry for the long hiatus in journals.  We’ve been traveling almost constantly, and haven’t quite learned how to manipulate goofy images of politicians on our Blackberry.

     But Figaro will not abandon figures. He promises.

    Figaro, I miss you! I've given you enough of a holiday! When will your cheerful fig appear in my inbox again?
