Ultimately probably shouldn't have been much more than a NY Times magazine article, but still fun nevertheless for how close to home some of this stuff hits. It's also too bad that Watters never really deals too squarely with issues of affluence and class when considering his whole urban tribe idea. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/144268?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
