NEIL STEIN MAKES THE TIMES
Albeit in Brief

Philadelphia restaurateur par kegscellance Neil Stein made the New York Times today. Sure, the notice was brief -- in a section topped “National Briefing,” no less -- and not flattering, but somehow I suspect Mr. Stein was rather pleased nonetheless.

Coverage closer to home includes “Stein Pleads Guilty in Tax Case,” by John Shiffman in the Philadelphia Inquirer, and “Neil Stein Guilty of Tax Fraud,” by Ramona Smith in the Philadelphia Daily News.

Web readers of the Daily News will catch Smith’s textual depiction of Stein -- “tanned and fit in a gray suit with a subdued magenta-striped shirt” -- but will sadly miss the photograph that appeared in the print edition of the newspaper, about which I have but one question: What the hell is up with that stupid necklace?
