It's nearly 1- in the evening and dinner is still in the works... largely because of my bout with inline skating earlier this evening. I've definitely improved: I can go forward fairly well now and my braking is improving. I'm still not great or too quick about it, but as long as I have a large, vaguely level surface and little competition, I can do okay on the skates now. Hurray!

I've been weblog browsing while waiting for dinner to finish (soon!). The fruits of my labor...

• Semi-Daily Journal cites Cory Doctorow on how useful keeping a weblog can be for keeping information in order. I have a vague memory that Cory Doctorow ran a session at Ad Astra on weblogs, back when the concept didn't mean nearly as much as it does now.
  
• A guide to British Pubs, found on The Edge of England's Sword weblog. It looked amusing, if serious, on first sight and based on C.'s reactions. I
  
• A comic found on Library Stuff about libraries (oddly enough) called Overdue. The two strips I've looked at thus far look promisingly amusing.
  
• Even funnier than Overdue, however, is a diagram of football-playing strategies used by some of the teams in the current World Cup. I've lost track of where I found the link.
  

Dinner is proving uncooperative - I've a small burn to show for my labors. Only another 15 minutes to go...
