Full disclosure: I play video games (level 68 night elf rogue on WOW), but the games that simulate stuff you can just go ahead and do in real life mystify me. My rogue is capable of picking someone's pocket, then stabbing him in the back simultaneously with two daggers -- pure escapism! But these new fake-musical instrument playing games remind me of the famous SNL fake-commercial for Mr. Tea, a spin-off appliance of the world famous Mr. Coffee. Mr. Tea resembles Mr. Coffee, but the instructions differ: You put a mug with a teabag on the hotplate, boil water and pour it through the top of Mr. Tea and into the mug. In other words: huh? |

Maud is so smart. This should probably go under "The Writer's Life," but as a public service to those of you who wonder why real writers are so bizarre (aside from being fundamentally unemployable, our ability to interact with other human beings atrophies in direct proportion to the amount of writing we're doing) I'm including it here. |

I saw a bumper sticker yesterday -- "Nixon, Now More Than Ever" and suddenly it didn't seem like such a bad idea. |

The literary lion-watchers over at Galleycat have this to say about Seth Godin's self-satisfied remark about "trick lit." |
