Staff Biographies
"Giving well is the best
revenge." |
Here Comes Ugly
 Our obsessive car-design guy, Pedkop Bumbera, has been
looking around again and he doesn't like what he sees
coming down the freeway. Not at all.
Hippie Glop?
Here we go into treacherous metaphysical waters, living in the past, being philosophically
superficial, etc., etc. Maybe we're just a
bunch of closeted Tiny Tim's?
A painter who continually
turns out paintings exactly like Jackson Pollock would soon be on his way to Rockland
State Hospital. In music they make him the chairman of the department.
--Morton Feldman.
St. Basil Chapel
Take an architecture break. Go with us to Philip Johnson's jewel-box chapel completing
his quadrangle at the University of St. Thomas in Houston.
As the World Burns
Social doyen Charlotte Ford has a new book out, an endlessing helpful resource for all in
these troubling times. The least we can do is
give her a bit of added publicity.
 We've been out roaming the
Internet again when we should've been spending our time studying the massive Windows XP
so-called Help file. Here's the latest off-beat
stuff we've found.
DIY BUMPERSTICKER
Now we've really done it. Talk about putting
the old agnostic chip on the old skeptical shoulder...
Yoga Tip
One of our staffers who spends a lot of time making like a pretzel has come up with this presumptuous, ridiculously anti-reductive,
perilously non-theistic hint regarding a payoff for stretching your joints and
undermining your mind.
Our modest contribution to the rich folklore of the
Christmas season.

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).
The Secret Republican Plan
for the 2004 Election
A reader forwards to us photographic proof of how the Republicans plan to win in 2004 without the embarrassingly public difficulties they
encountered in Florida last time.
There is no greater hatred
in the world than the hatred of ignorance for knowledge.
--Galileo.
Global Supercomputer Usage
The November, 2001, stats from www.top500.org are astonishing both for what they indicate and for what they
imply.
 China
X 15
Wm. S. Pollard III's slightly off-beat photographic take on the current state of urban
life in China. 15 pictures that start off looking like the National Geographic
and then... well, you'll see.
Words to the Unwise
Ads, church bulletins, and signs: Wonderful
malapropisms, some old, some new, collected from around the Internet.
The People's Republic
of America???
Coming soon to a continent near you, a bastion of
"freedom" whose Bill of Rights is not worth the paper it was written on.
Midland's Own
Boy George
 Buttons popping with pride, Ora Shay, our Token Republican columnist, reminds
us that George W. Bush is proof that God is still
on America's side.
Circles of Bach
A Bach partita, here arranged for organ, and some
slowly changing circles.
