Friday Fun Link – BoMoMo (Nov 7, 2008)

Today's link is a fun variation on the idea of an online painting program.  (And speaking of painting a picture, how about a map from two short years ago showing how Barack Obama stacked up in a hypothetical race against John McCain.)

Books I've Read More Than Once

I once did a post on authors whose books I've read more than one of as a way to assess who my favourite authors are. After re-reading “The Road” by Cormac McCarthy, I realised I could do something similar by listing the books that I've read more than once.  This is an incomplete list, just […]

Music Monday – "Now I'm Singing in the library/And trying to flirt"

Thanks to Cenobyte for passing this along – not only a great video set in a library but someone out there is redoing the lyrics of various videos so they match what is shown in the video!  This one is the classic Tears for Fears track “Head Over Heels” but you should look at the […]
