D Magazine writer and Freakonomics ticket holder Teresa Gubbins informs me that the local Levitt-and-Dubner show’s been cancelled: “sniff sniff, the Grand Prairie stop of the Freakonomics tour just got cancelled. due to poor ticket sales.

Well, I could have told you that. This show, on the other hand, should do fine. (“If you’re making eighteen bucks an hour selling cars, and still don’t bother to show up for work, you might be from Grand Prairie.”)

Also — looks like they’ve cancelled Desmond Tutu, too. But there are lots of good seats available to hear Al Gore. So you got that going for you.
