Or, a bunch of random one-liners:
- Daylight Savings Time and International Law.
- I made this (rather juvenile) Chevy Ad. They have a feature on their website that allows anyone to make advertisements. Needless to say, not all the ads have been flattering.
- Jesus Christ — The Musical.
- Measurers of Wood and Bark.
- Neat skyscraper. Too bad the Freedom Tower won’t be nearly as interesting.
- So this survey on sexual attitudes in women in the UK uses a sample size of 46 with a mean age of 48. Ummmm…. non-representative sample, anyone?
- Check out this jaw-dropping, mind-boggling clip of Birgit Nilsson
singingchannelling Turandot. - Is the Washington Post a better paper than the New York Times? (via es)
- Choose Your Own Choose Your Own Adventure.
- And finally, a note on public etiquette, addressed mainly to the couple who were standing on the corner of 22nd and 10th, right outside the Empire Diner shortly after one o’clock on Friday afternoon, locked in what they call fervent osculation: public displays of affections are never really attractive, even if the parties involved actually are attractive. But when the parties involved are a seventysomething gentleman with a George Hamilton tan in a suit that cost more than the average Manhattanite pays in rent and a young woman who might have been half his age… well, I know that the turgid blossoming of passion on a glorious spring day is a wonderful thing, but, my god, there are people trying to eat lunch! Please!
