On an Almost Year-In-Review
Yes, I stole this from Jon Polk, who stole it from a bunch of other people. 😉 Here’s what you do: Go to your Calendar View and copy/paste the first sentence of your first (or only) entry for the first day of each month for the year 2005.

More on Christmas Songs
As seen on several friends’ pages, most recently Todd‘s–Which Christmas song am I? You are ‘Jingle Bells’!

On Geek Novels
Jack Schofield at the Guardian Unlimited wrote about the Top 20 Geek Novels. I’m not at all clear on the methodology of determining the Top 20 Geek Novels–seems to be a sort-of survey based on the comments on a blog entry elsewhere–so this list is more than a little meaningless. However, it is an interestingContinue reading “On Geek Novels”

On Swear Words
Since I’ve seen this on a half-dozen friends’ webpages I gave this a go. My initial thought was not to post the results, but they shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone who’s known me for any amount of time. So, if I were a swear word, which swear word would I be? Your word isContinue reading “On Swear Words”
