Who is James Lileks, and What Does He Want?
Self ^ | Today | Self

Posted on 03/08/2013 9:51:36 AM PST by Psalm 73

Last year National Review magazine started running a piece by James Lileks in every issue. I am ashamed to say I had never heard of him, although his humor is quite good (better than P J O'Rourke even). And he is, of course, a conservative.

Anybody familiar with his work?

His "Gallery of Regrettable Food" is a priceless, all-time classic. Check out his web site Lileks.com.

WARNING! The carrots here are not to be eaten. Your manly meat-a-rifficness will diminish if you eat the carrots. Vegetables are for commies.

Did people every actually eat some of those recipes?

He used to be on Hugh Hewitt;s show at least once a week, and he is the QUICKEST and FUNNIEST THINKER I’ve ever heard!!! I miss hearing him since I can;t listen to Hughie anymore!

He's a regular on Hugh Hewitt's radio program. He's from Minnesocold. He's pretty funny.

He wrote a book called Interior Desecrations.

Interior Desecrations

I think he wrote a food one too.

Yep, here it is...The Gallery of Regrettable Food. :)
