So far, Monday has proven to be a real fire drill at work. Fortunately, I got one of my issues put to bed and look to close on another. Go me! Other thoughts:

Grills

I decided to tell my inner cheapskate to STFU and so I bought this Weber grill. It really is nicer than the Char Broil, and not that much more expensive.

Sad Puppies

I favorably linked to this article by Eric Flint on the "disconnect" between award-giving SF and popular SF. The more I think on it, I'm not sure the gap is as big as Eric thinks it is. John Scalzi, recent Hugo winner, just got back from a large tour of Australia and an appearance as a big-name guest at the LA Book Festival. In short, somebody's reading him. Mary Robinette Kowal is a featured guest at this weekend's Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo. We're told "all the kidz go to comic-con."

C2E2

Speaking of comic-cons, as part of my ongoing, hard-hitting investigative report of same (and if you believe that, call me about a bridge for sale) I will be attending the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo (C2E2) for the day on Friday. Then I'm heading to Davenport Iowa to play Rotarian. Updates to follow.
