Which is better - to put a recall on a book due in ten days, or one that is already 10 days overdue? The latter is already accruing fines.

...that cheese makes for remarkably good bible stories. (found via Making Light)

...that action movies can be remarkably abstruse, and their trailers randomly generated. My first attempt yielded "In a world of illusion, eight prophets try to find justice." An action movie?? (also found via Making Light)

...that Dominion stocks frozen British-style pork pies. Despite coming with bonus airmiles, I decided to think about the acquisition some other time. I'd be more tempted if they were fresh.

...that cliosfolly already knows the authors of all the weblogs I ever casually come across. (Today's stellar example was truepenny's.)

...that there are several promising-looking articles in the Warburg &l Courtauld Journal on Veritas filia temporis, but, much as they are helpful, I shouldn't pursue this route too far at the moment as it will only get me sidetracked from what I really need to be researching.

...that if I spent as much time writing as I do thinking about writing and reading about writing, I would be producing quite a bit of writing.
