Some pretty interesting stuff came from the depths of the interweb today. More interesting than anything that happened to me in the past 24 hours, so here you go:
Savage Love - I'm not reproducing it out of respect for taste (read: Susie's really grossed out), but totally worth a read this week for the Southern Reverend story.
In more serious news, it seems that David Pogue, the tech guru at the Paper of Record doesn't know everything. He's compiled a list of things he doesn't know on his blog. Among the highlights:
* What happens to software programs when their publishers go out of business?
* Who are the morons who respond to junk-mail offers, thereby keeping spammers in business?
* How come there are still no viruses for Mac OS X? If it has 6 percent of the market, shouldn’t it have 6 percent of the viruses?
* Why don’t all hotels have check-in kiosks like airlines do?
* Why aren’t there recycling bins for bottles and cans where they’re most obviously needed, like food courts and cafeterias?
But don't fear, faithful blogreaders. I have several substantive ideas in my head for some posts, including watching the Old Firm game (part the first) at The Celtic Cross on Saturday, thoughts on Richard Dawkins and a blog post I read at the St. Louis Archdiocese Youth Website (I was there to check out the musings of a good friend), and more.* Also, I'm going to try and get a Google Reader feed on the blog for some shared items, removing the excuse, "I'll just post a funny link and that counts."
* Unlike the Times, I am absolutely, unequivocally, and totally in favor of the serial comma. Without it, how would you explain the following sentence: I like steak, bacon and ham and eggs.
