Rod and I were walking to WesShop and hundreds and hundreds of balloons came out of nowhere, popping in the distance, flocking and hopping and circling and bewildering the living shit out of the cars.

1. In case you’ve been sleeping under a snowdrift all day, (or out frolicking and sledding down Foss with shrieking children, in which case I applaud/envy you) Google is kind of gently subsuming Twitter (and Flickr, and and and) under its hyper-easy, non-character-limited, locationally-aware Buzz… Thing. It’s like Pokemon out there, gotta catch all the [...]

Professors: they might or might not be on Facebook, but do you really want to go there? Instead, I present you with WorldCat Identities, a well nigh voyeuristic look at the careers of your favorite Learned Sages.
