So I get this email with the name "Wright" in the subject line.

By Ann Althouse

And ? the life of a weary blogger being what it is ? I think first that it's some anti-Obama thing railing about Jeremiah Wright. And then I think of Bob Wright ? is it something from Bloggingheads.tv? It starts off:

I trust you all made it through the grueling winter and are enjoying the daffodils!

That seems far afield from either Bob or Jeremiah.

With Spring comes the annual Wright & Like tour, and I hope you had such a great time last year in Delavan that you might want to try another stint?

Oh, yes, Delavan... Remember "Was I a decent docent?" It's Frank Lloyd Wright!

This year's Wright & Like is subtitled "On the Road Again", as it is a reprise of a similar tour we did six years ago, featuring four Frank Lloyd Wright houses off the I-94 corridor between Milwaukee and Madison: the Greenberg House in Dousman, the Smith House in Jefferson, the Arnold House in Columbus, and the Jackson House in Beaver Dam. We've added four more great venues to make a very full day: two John Randal McDonald houses (Oconomowoc and Beaver Dam) and one Russell Barr Williamson, in Beaver Dam, and the exquisite Farmers and Merchants Bank by Louis Sullivan, in Columbus.

I guess somehow I was a decent docent ? decent enough to be asked back.

Funny, I was just sitting in Starbucks this morning ? working on my notes for the last class of the semester, my last class here at Brooklyn Law School ? and they played this old tune:

I can't believe your song is gone so soon.
I barely learned the tune
So soon
So soon.
