It’s writers like these who make the rest of us look bad. You know what the best part about being a bleeding-heart liberal is? As long as these nutty people don’t hurt anybody or try and pass legislation on my bedroom activities, I really don’t mind sharing the world with them. They’re wacky and insane, […]

I’m not sure what came over me, perhaps it’s living in Chicago, and knowing how insane sports fans are here, or perhaps it’s my interest in the history of organized forms of violence, but I went ahead and checked out the video of the basketball brawl down in Indy. The Evil Kameron part of me

“What a wonderful life I’ve had! I only wish I’d realized it sooner.” – Colette Because I’m not superwoman. Skipped kickboxing last night. Bad sign. Wandered aimlessly downtown, renewed my worry and angst about being too big, about not losing enough weight, about not being smaller. Felt like I was spiraling into some sort of…

My buddy Greg Beatty has a poem up at Strange Horizons about sleeping beauties – check it out.

Got an e-mail circular from the lead A/E guy here at the Workplace of Silliness – looks like we’re going to get 2 proposals we’ve currently got out that are closing up right now. One of our clients also just gave a glowing review of our A/E guy working in Iraq, so we’ve got kudos

Bush, Rumsfeld, and Powell take some time off to model for the Banana Republic catalog… Matt Cheney’s got a post up about some of the flack Strange Horizons appears to be taking for publishing a soft SF story… that’s about the sexual relationship between two women. Though I agree that the story would have been

My roomie has a date tonight, and I’m sitting here watching Rocky movies, eating Thai food, doing line edits and arguing with myself again about what a lame person I must be to be sitting here finding some kind of happiness in line edits and Rocky movies. Aren’t I incomplete? Isn’t there something wrong with

And, one more before I get started on these 700 pages of line edits (arg): check out Matt Cheney’s reflections on teaching Neil Gaiman’s American Gods to his highschool AP English class. I just think it’s damn cool he got away assigning a real book – with swearing and vagina dentate and non-white people and
