"Giving well is the best revenge."

How Corrupt
Is Your Country?
Take our handy- dandy little corruption test and see how the old motherland / fatherland stacks up.

Springtime
in Weimar
Cassandra, our in-house prophet- without-an-audience is at it again, casting yarrow stalks or whatever. Not a pretty picture.

  C    O    U    N    T     E    R

    B     L     A      S     T     !
Fed up with pessimism, Hinko Livernoix dons his rose- colored spectacles and has at our beloved Cassandra and her dour worldview.

Sagely
Statistics
Why haven't there been more real Jesuses, Buddhas, etc.? Anther Ticklaw sets out to answer this ticklish, tricky, not entirely unsophomoric question.

OK, enough idle web- wandering. Time to see how much you really know. Kulchur Kwotient No. 777.

No. 10 in the series...

Magellan's Log Books & CDs
"Giving well is the best revenge."
Gifts for yourself, and for any of your friends who are still awake and thinking. All drawn from the sometimes boistrous, sometimes beautiful pages of Magellan's Log. Click here for more info.

Architectural
Conundrum
Robert L. Tufford ponders the antediluvian soul of present-day architecture and is baffled by the future.

Books I wish I hadn't read...

More help for the retinally deprived, this time from the fantastic history of quilting.

Fat-cat Stat:
King County (Seattle) valuation of Bill Gates' house: $110 million. (It was no doubt the 24 bathrooms that drove it over the $100-mill mark.)

Brainteasers 10
Some readers have complained that our brainteasers are getting too easy. This batch should restore the balance.

Old! Old!
Jeez, what won't these guys think of next? A 200-year-old, polymorphously perverse novel, Lucinda, by Friedrich Schlegel. First modern English translation of a book that was a scandalous best-seller in its day. Where else but Magellan's Log can you find really strange esoterica like this?

No IPO? No advertising? How do we do it? We sometimes wonder too. Quality tells (or so we hope). For now, check our gift shop for Magellan's Log mementos.

for a Piano

HOMONYMS
Do words that sound alike have an (adverse, averse?) (affect, effect?) on your English? Test yourself.

Reppy Duart, our jargonified psychologist / theologian - in - residence applies cutting - edge physics to Real Life.

One of our classical music guys re-encounters Tristan and Isolde after 50 years, with eye-closing, ear-opening results.
