I spent some time browsing through the old Big Indian/Crowfield photos. Looking at adults, they're about the same from year to year. The kids? Holy cow. Time is zooming.
after watching the first three episodes gonna give my seal of approval to showtime's Masters of Sex mostly because i like the cast theyve assembled including michael sheen, lizzy caplan and beau bridges. curious to see if they can keep the sex interesting, so to speak.
nate silver's first espn post at his temporary home on grantland. wont seem quite so weird when he has his own url but it still highlights the incongruity between 538 and espn as brands though grantland is the unofficial home of stat geekery on espn.
I'm talking about the beards, of course. Beards so outrageous and outlandish and inimitable that people aren't even trying to grow them. They're just sticking them on. The Red Sox merchandise shops are selling fake beards that you can wear during games. They're more dye-job Gandalf than Jonny Gomes, but they get the point across: You're one of them.
cant recall where i first saw these but it is movie criticism in the guise of hulk though only minimally. mostly its akin to sitting in on a class in film theory.
perhaps not so surprisingly, churches offer gluten free wafers for communion in portland. at least they do at the lutheran church i went to for a memorial service last week. i remained seated through the bread and wine portion of events, so i can't vouch for it's tastiness, but i suppose that's not the point.
