The sound of bits dying, one by one
If any of my readers are particularly tech-savvy and can give Jayme some advice on his current tale of tech woe, I’m sure he’d be appreciative. It seems that all of his data — all of it — was on … Continue reading
What if they gave a war, and nobody invited me?
UPDATE: For the surprising number of people arriving here today via Google searches for “Scalzi” and “RaceFail”, welcome aboard. I’m not really the least bit interested in Racefail, but I hope some of you will stick around here anyway; I … Continue reading

Comments Off on What if they gave a war, and nobody invited me?
But for the Grace….
Every year, it happens: someone forgets that their kid is in the car on a hot day while they go inside and do something, and the kid dies of hyperthermia. And every time it happens, the chorus comes: “How can … Continue reading
My “Faith” firsts
This quiz came to me on Facebook, and I’m putting it here as well…. 1. Who gave you your first Bible? No one. I bought a copy of the KJV in 1999 or 2000, for research on a writing project. … Continue reading

I want an album of Christmas songs, done in the Cantopop style. I think that would be really cool.
Gotcha, Captcha!
Hey, Blogger-commenters: is it just me, or have the captcha’s on Blogger’s commenting system been pronounceable of late, if not actually sounding like they may be real words? I wonder why that might be.
Ladies and Gentlemen, behold: a link-dump.
I bookmarked a bunch of things while I wasn’t blogging, and now I figure I’ll just dump ’em all here, either without comment or with short, pithy comment. :: There’s a gadget called The Typealyzer which analyzes the writing in … Continue reading
Well, if you insist….
A good friend sent me this picture in e-mail earlier. I don’t know if it’s real, but if it is…well, with tactics like this, I can’t believe the whole “Temperence” and Prohibition things never worked out! Well, that would certainly … Continue reading
