I enjoyed this email message: "An older, tired-looking dog wandered into my yard.
I could tell from his collar and well-fed belly that he had a home and was well taken care of.
He calmly came over to me, I gave him a few pats on his head;
he then followed me into my house, slowly walked down the
hall, curled up in the corner and fell asleep."

"An hour later, he went to the door, and I let him out. The next day he was back, greeted me in my yard, walked inside and resumed his spot in the hall and again slept for about an hour. This continued off and on for several weeks. Curious I pinned a note to his collar: 'I would like to find out who the owner of this wonderful sweet dog is and ask if you are aware that almost every afternoon your dog comes to my house for a nap.' "

"The next day he arrived for his nap, with a different note pinned to his collar: 'He lives in a home with 6 children, 2 under the age of 3 - he's trying to catch up on his sleep. Can I come with him tomorrow?' "

I love this story. We have a cat who comes to visit us who we simply call, "friendly kitty." I sometimes wonder what prompts him to visit us, because I'm sure he is loved and fed at his own home.

No, I've not left. However, I got tired of hearing myself whine all the time and the holidays were going to make me prone to doing so even more. So, I took myself offline for a bit. The holidays are over (and yes, the drama llama came Christmas Eve....) and the craptacular piece of poo known as 2009 is dead. Thank sweet babby jeebus...

Loved this: "Let’s face it, the staged photos of a professor leading a faux discussion with a group of students who happen to cover all races and genders isn’t going to cut it for much longer. Kids growing up in the user generated content era want to get the real info. They’re going to find your students sharing videos that you probably don’t know existed and their Facebook posts and Twitter updates. It’s those media touches that are going to make up a students mind, not the glossy view book."

Starship Troopers Is Perfect — and Therein Lies the Problem - Hugos - io9 - http://io9.com/5439145...
Junebug, Kol Tregaskes, Lars Clausen and 9 other people liked this
"Starship Troopers is one of Robert Heinlein's most famous books, and one of the most famously controversial in SF. And the 1960 Hugo winner has its problems — but that's probably why it's a classic. Man, I accomplished straight-up nothing over the last fortnight or so. In fact, those of you who are especially alert, as well as those of you who have built tiny shrines in your basement to honor me*, may have noticed that this particular piece of writing was supposed to run last weekend. Well, I was on Christmas break. I have always found it very difficult to get anything done during the holidays, and now that I am fully self-employed, this is more true than ever: I take a couple days off, it spirals into a few more days, and pretty soon I am back to staying up till 3 a.m. watching whatever is on AMC and sleeping in until noon. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO IMPOSE ORDER ON MY LIFE FROM WITHIN, AND I OFTEN WISH I WERE BACK IN HIGH SCHOOL AND ON A RIGOROUS, PREDETERMINED SCHEDULE. I believe I am not alone in this. Which is why, I think, Starship Troopers is such an appealing book."
- RAPatton
from Bookmarklet
"More than all that, though, Starship Troopers is also an examination of the moral philosophy that justifies the Federation's organization and policies. As Golem100 pointed out in the comments a few weeks ago, it's as much a tract as a novel, and it's rather famously controversial for that reason.** Me, I'm not that interested in arguing for or against the merits of the political model...

- RAPatton
"How best to deal with this? I think it's important to remember that Starship Troopers was supposed to have been the last of Heinlein's "juveniles" — his novels aimed at young readers — and to take it with a grain of salt, as such. It is thought-provoking, but it's not especially complex, and it's not supposed to be. It's putting an idea out there, and offering it up for discussion and...

"JJ Abrams and Alice in Wonderland: What's the connection? Lost is rife with Carroll-isms, and now Fringe is falling down the same rabbit hole. We investigate the Abrams/Alice relationship just in time for Fringe to pick up January 11th. Abrams has been mining the Alice mythos for years -Alias, Lost, and yes, even Felicity are all filled to the brim with Into the Looking Glass subtext and, as is the case with Fringe, actual context. For the sake of brevity, topicality and to spare you the pain of many, many white rabbit-related metaphors we'll keep the focus on Fringe with a bit of Abrams' back catalog to support the theory. "
- RAPatton
"We know Abrams has a penchant for pretty female characters cast adrift in dangerous waters. Sydney Bristow, Kate Austen (who was originally slated to lead the Losties, not Jack) and Abrams' current muse Agent Olivia Dunham all embody the Alice character: fearless young women with unhappy home lives and an insatiable amount of curiosity. Think about it - Olivia has no qualms about...
