Staff Biographies

"Giving well is the best revenge."

Mary Jenewein:
Paint on Paper
Sixteen powerful mixed-media works on paper. Much is lost in the transfer to pixels, but much is also retained.

Deathbed Software
Computer Editor Sylvia Thodhiss, normally the very picture of hard-nosed cynicism when faced with software hype finds her life taken over by a highly unlikely game.

In Search of the
Great American Haiku
Not unlike Coleridge and his dream of "Kubla Khan," Jerden Purmort recently awoke to find a few concise syllables pouring out onto his keyboard. Is it the Great American Haiku? You decide.

Elvis Sighting in
Lincoln Bedroom!
The White House today released astonishing photographic proof that Elvis Presley briefly materialized last night in the Lincoln Bedroom to receive a medal of honor from one of his biggest fans. See story: Dubya Gets His Wish.

America in Denial
Joel Fluker says as a nation we're in massive denial. Not only that, we're enablers of our own denial. What to do, what to do.

C.R.A.B.S.
As a public service, Magellan's Log reports on the first firm identification of the widespread disease, C.R.A.B.S. (not to be confused with "crabs"). At some cost to our bandwidth usage we have also included a handy at-home C.R.A.B.S. diagnostic test.

Hectoring Question
With 26 words we ask one question which some will take as hectoring but which you perhaps will read as a gentle reminder.

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 about, among other things, the funniest book of the 21st century (so far).

You must be the change you wish to see in the world. --Gandhi.

Tory! Tory! Tory!
Inordinate praise for Florence King's Confessions of a Failed Southern Lady mixed with saddened remarks on her later unbridled misanthropy. Bob Odom, our New Orleans correspondent, first falls out of his chair laughing, then collapses in tears.

All-Country Test-Your-Leader’s-
Sanity Diagnostic Quiz
Worried about, oh say, world peace? Global warming? No prob. Magellan's Log has come up with this planet-saving diagnostic test which we are distributing free of charge to every world capital.

Drone on the Range
Zone time, with a little minimalist midi plus a little minmalist animated gif.

It Only Stops Hurting
When I Laugh
Desperate in this season of extreme discontent for something to relieve the pain, we set the staff to searching the Internet for funny images. We came up with 13 we hadn't seen before.

FLAT HEAT
Don Pfingston contributes a few words (four to be exact) on seasonal reality.

Bull Run
Our correspondent from southwestern Louisiana, Henry Bob Kulup, brings us up to date on humans and animal-trading in the American outback.

Meditator
A little (actually not so little, it's 250k) animated GIF as role model, with a bit of 500-year-old b.g. music.

Tasteless Jokes 40.
Kulchur Kwotient 800.
