Bye Bye Gothamist.

I finally pulled the plug on reading Gothamist today.

One too many snide posts on billboard beaver shots in the last several weeks.

I'm not opposed to snide, but either go all out and declare your intentions of becoming an asshole, or call 1-888-STFU-LOL, as they say.

Gridskipper is still interesting though, and stays on my list.

Somebody Else Read Hatchet!

I remember the book from middle school.

Boy Scout found alive...

One of Michael's favorite books a few years ago was about a boy whose plane crashes in the wilderness, and how that boy survives on his own, his father said.

''I think he's got some of that book in his mind,'' Auberry said. ''In my fantasy, when they find him, he'll be making beef jerky somewhere or something like that. He's got a lot of resources to draw from.''

Once again folks, literacy gets you to all of the wrong places...

I still like Keillor

Say what you will about Prairie Home Companion, or Garrison Keillor's commentary on marriage after his own three marriages, his column about gay marriage (for which he was excoriated) seemed to be typically tongue in cheek.

He has issued an apology.

Thanks for clarifying, but some of us got it the first time.

A map of Human Genetic Function

This may be one of the coolest things I have ever seen.

(Discovered from this article.)

Clicking on Viral Protein to see the genetic material you have picked up from a virus... amazing.
