President's Day Update
Feb. 17th, 2014 10:08 amThanks to President's day, I am not at work, but thanks to a snowstorm I'm limiting my outside activities. Herewith, some random thoughts:
1) Various Neanderthals in science fiction continue to shoot themselves in the feet (Mary's "critics," not Mary, are doing the shooting). In other news, water is wet and it's cold in Chicago in February.
2) A fascinating short film - how wolves change rivers. If a wolf can change a river, a man can change the climate.
3) From Jay Lake, who's become (not by choice) a connoisseur of cancer treatment: The French way of cancer treatments.
4) Over the weekend, I went to see the new movie The Monuments Men. It was very well done and quite moving. I highly recommend it.
5) Speaking of things highly-recommended, I picked up a new reviewing gig at Heroines of Fantasy. (Alas, it pays the same as my other gig.) My first review, of the very entertaining book The Shifter's Trail, is up on the site.
