Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Typewriter repairmen in photos<\/a> – Typewriters are really an amazing bit of machinery. On that basis, I’m sorry to see them go. As a past user … I’m just as glad to be using word processing software.<\/li>\n
  2. A Personal Letter From Steve Martin<\/a> – Heh.<\/li>\n
  3. Unemployment Down In 90% Of Nation\u2019s 372 Largest Metro Areas<\/a> – That’s good news.<\/li>\n
  4. Alaska GOP Congressman Don Young: Gulf Spill \u201cNot An Environmental Disaster\u201d<\/a> – Booking any vacations to the Florida panhandle, Don? What an idiotic statement.<\/li>\n
  5. O\u2019Reilly compares gay people to al Qaeda.<\/a> – Classy move, Bill.<\/li>\n
  6. High Stakes Innovation : The Frontal Cortex<\/a> – Not surprising, under pressure we tend to be less creative. Fight or flight are simple responses to stress, and that’s how we’re wired.<\/li>\n
  7. Missionaries of Hate<\/a> – Unfortunately, too many less-fundamental \/ -vicious Christians are too collegial, too polite, or two lily-livered to speak out against such things. What, really, truly, would Jesus do?<\/li>\n
  8. First paper ‘dipstick’ test for determining blood type<\/a> – Excellent.<\/li>\n
  9. Coffee Lovers<\/a> – Yeah, that’s about right.<\/li>\n
  10. Creative and Unusual Soap Designs<\/a> – As with all designed soap, lovely until it’s, like, actually used<\/b>.<\/li>\n
  11. Guessing cops allowed to give speeding tickets in Ohio \u2014 Autoblog<\/a> – Wow, that’s just … yeah, pretty wrong. Without questioning whether cops have good or bad speed estimating skills, being fined based on no more than an opinion seems horribly liable to abuse.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
