Link Roundup
A link roundup for ya!
- One for the philosophers in my readership (or at least the tech-savvy ones): Descartes 2.0
- Proof that Merlin Mann is insane... and awesome. Insanely awesome?
- Best rejection letter response ever. I totally love YouTube for stuff like this.
- Like mashups (aka bootlegs; where you take two different songs and smash them together to make a new song)? Check out BootieSF
- A new law for online discourse: Tubman's Law. Brilliant.
- Reader's Prayer. I want to get this done in calligraphy to hang in my library.
- The late, great Cancer, Baby takes on Mood Ooglers, those horrible people who will tell you things like "smile, it can't be that bad!" even though they don't know you or know why you have your current expression on your face. Read the comments as well for more good stories of harshing on Mood Ooglers.
- For those who know both the theater scene and something about religious ritual, I present: The Theater Ritual. Brilliant stuff.
- Battlestar Galactisimpsons. Words fail me.
- Take "Super Mario Bros." and cross it with the Burly Brawl from "The Matrix Reloaded" and you get.... Super Mario Reloaded. My brain hurts. But in a good way.
- Gettin' political: Lt. Ehren Watada is refusing to deploy to Iraq, citing a soldier's duty to refuse to participate in a nillegal war of aggression. Rawk.
- A meditation on the purpose of Flickr. Good stuff, and some great pix.
- Apparently, flaming someone in an online chat room counts as libel! Trolls beware!
- Wonderful quote from Mark Twain about writing.
- 10 Things Teenage Writers Should Know About Writing by the awesome John Scalzi.
- A funny take on the common CF slur "crotchfruit". Heeee.

Good stuff! Thank you for those! Look here, I have another link for you: http://www.foulbeast.com/zoomquilt/zoom.htm
That was the most beautiful thing I have seen all week, and I shall return to it often.
WARNING: don't look at this unless you have at least 15 minutes to kill!

I don't know how old you have to be to get your tubes tied, but I know that if you're under 30 you'll have trouble finding a doc willing to do it. It's not that there's an age limit, it's that they're afraid you'll change your mind.
Elke - thanks for the awesome link! So pretty!
