I ran out of steam last night, and blew off my standing trivia competition. I ended up in bed at 9:30, and am blaming a series of late nights and early mornings at the Rotary conference and my writer's workshop. Since the steam is re-building, have some links:

A) A history lesson for Cliven Bundy - the Homestead Acts.

B) Lying Liars who Lie - a response to the historical revisionism of John C. Wright.

C) An interesting take on the book and movie Silence of the Lambs. Well worth the read.

D) I think I said this before, but another voice saying of the film Ender's Game: "You’re making sociopaths. Sociopaths do not make good fighting leaders. Nor do they follow orders well. And all your failed sociopaths are going to have to go somewhere afterwards: you’re going to break them, teach them these habits, and send them back to civvy-street?"

E) I served on one, so they have a place in my heart: Upgrading the classic FFG. (The one I served on is part of this upgrade.)

F) For my Dad, who wonders why they're not making a movie of my book: 268 science fiction books came out in the month of May.
