The "Mayor Emanuel" Epic, Preserved for Posterity

By Chuck Sudo in Arts & Entertainment on Feb 25, 2011 5:00PM

We're really grateful with the response to Steven's post breaking down the "Mayor Emanuel" Twitter feed by the numbers, even though Steven is now depressed that it shows how long he's subscribed to Harper's. Steven also shared this link yesterday that captures every one of the updates to the epic roman a clef that's equal parts Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Henry Miller and Hunter S. Thompson. If you're going into withdrawals waiting for the doppelganger to come back from the time vortex, this will have to tide you over.
