Arrived

I just received Michael Polanyi, The Art of Knowing [http://www.isi.org/books/bookdetail.aspx?id=26604cb2-dd79-4c2b-ab6d-8dff38213bdc] in the mail today. Bitterly ironic in light of my post earlier today, but I'm looking forward to it. As of page ten, it reads well.

Ragnarok Cometh

For those who missed it, the end of the world is near. The media widely publicized that the World Series would start at 8:05 tonight, and it did. I'm still in shock.

The Weekend Eudemon

Criminy. I didn't get to bed until almost midnight last night, and I don't even have a few beers left over in my system to show for it. If you look under my FAQ, you'll see this statement: > With my seventh child on

Brews You Can Use V

Miller High Life is going to take back the blue collar crowd [http://adage.com/article?article_id=112506]. Good for them. Market beer for men. I don't like the stuff, but I'll buy one just to show a little support: > Miller High Life is

Brews You Can Use IV

How to prevent a hangover [http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/70394/alcohol_and_the_hangover.html?page=2] . Nothing terribly complicated (take a B complex), but interesting if you're into nutrition issues.

Brews You Can Use III

First the Middle Ages and beer, now the Detroit Tigers and beer [http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2006610180305]. Boy, this is my day: > Tiger Beer -- complete with a tiger on its orange-and-blue label, which matches the ball club's color scheme -- has

Brews You Can Use II

I dig beer, and I dig the Middle Ages. Looks like a perfect book. Unfortunately, it's $75. Review [http://beerblog.genx40.com/archives/2006/april/bookreviewbeer].

Brews You Can Use

Nine beer-mapping sites, with ratings [http://dethroner.com/index.php/2006/10/12/nine-bar-mapping-sites-happy-hours-ratings-and-beer/] .

People Haters

I've previously made the point that the environmental movement is tainted with misanthropes: folks who would prefer that folks not exist. I'd never seen them admit it, though, until I saw this [http://www.newscientist.com/channel/earth/mg19225731.100-imagine-earth-without-people.html] : >

Great Video

One of the best videos I've seen in a long time [http://www.americanpapist.com/2006/10/video-doves-campaign-for-real-beauty.html] . Directly on point with my rantings against make-believe women [http://www.catholicexchange.com/vm/index.asp?vm_id=2&art_id=24526]
