Readin' Friday

The Other Stuff and Debate Etc. are both filled with new stuff for your debate and non-debate delectation. I got a little distracted with Bump and all, which is why there's been a bit of a gap atwixt announcements. If nothing else, watch Pavarotti sing with Lou Reed.

Readin' Friday

Debate Etc. has new articles on immigration, morality and brain scans, how to keep women from voting, and so much more!

Meanwhile, The Other Stuff has some wonderful one-star reviews of Moby-Dick, an Oz theme park, some videos of skateboarders who aren't dead yet but who no doubt will be shortly, and, of course, so much more!

Readin' and Writin' Friday

The latest Debate Etc.—Drones, drinking, discussions of LD and PF, and more.

The latest The Other Stuff—Archie horror comics, Vincent Price, Bill Watterson, the greatest Beatles performance of all time, and, of course, the proverbial more.

And if you haven't read The House on Summer Street for Halloween, there's simply no hope for you.

The Other Stuff 10/2

And then there's the instantly legendary butt pudding, Rene Magritte and the art that doesn't grow up, a recipe for monkey brain cake, a hint or two of Mark Twain, the story behind the Dead Parrot sketch—and so much more! The Other Stuff

Debate, Etc. and The Other Stuff

They're both full of new articles if you haven't checked them out lately. Click on the links over at the right.

The Other Stuff 9/13

John Lennon as Superman, Captain Beefheart, "Double Indemnity", the original "Alien" chestbuster (before everything started looking like cheesy CGI), PK Dick—what more do you want? The Other Stuff

The Other Stuff 9/6

The Other Stuff has been updated over the week with—among other articles of interest—the truth about cow tipping, a great interview with Dick Van Dyke (who was asked to play James Bond!), the most insane amusement park ever, and the cover feature, "Thug Notes on Fahrenheit 451," which manages to be both hilarious and a totally perfect analysis.

Another magazine... [Link added correctly]

Another attempt to collect all the good stuff I see and pass it around, in other words.

I call it The Other Stuff. The inaugural issue has an interview with Carl Barks, Raymond Chandler v. Alfred Hitchcock, "Hey Jude" live, a supercut of "Your Song," an analysis of majoring in English, a great set of idiotic Batman/Superman comics from the Golden Age, and so much more.... Watching Barks giggle about the Beagle Boys is probably worth the price of admission (if there were an admission price).

Today's "Toy of the Day"

I've been thinking all these thoughts about time travel recently

Just say "Yo."

More here. Thanks, TED.

Dumb ways to die

The catchiest tune I heard all day.

I'm not exactly up to speed on blogging, obviously. But I've been catching things here and there, and I'll just pass them along.
