The Links for August 28th

I'm innocent. Well, except for a crime of passion. I did something stupid with someone and even worse than doing that stupid thing I did the same stupid thing with someone else and pretended I had never done that stupid thing before. You look confused, should I walk you through it?

The Links for August 21st

"Jack Fleming's house was above the old stadium," Cook continued. "He told me, when he was a child, Pitt would come out on the field, and he would sit on his mother's lap. His mother would point down at them. And his mother would say, 'Son, that's Pitt. You hate Pitt now. You hate Pitt tomorrow. You hate Pitt until the day you die. After that, you will hate Pitt for eternity.' "
I am a Pitt fan but that quote cracks me up.

Emily, please. It's Rory. What she tackles, she conquers. This girl could name the state capitals at 3, recite the periodic table at 4, discuss Schopenhauer's influence on Nietzsche when she was 10. She's read every book by every author with a Russian surname and had a 4.2 grade-point average at one of the toughest schools on the east coast. If she's excluding salmon puffs, she has a good reason to exclude salmon puffs. And I, for one, have complete confidence in her ability to tackle this job, and so should you.

LONG ASS READ ALERT
"A Colder War" is a short story by Charles Stross. I first read it maybe 2 years ago when researching for my screenplay. It is an excellent story in which nuclear weapons are the least thing to fear between the USA and Soviet Union. Great Lovecraftian writing, great story.

Leave the old hag alone.

1. If you estimate there are 50,000 of something and then find out there are 175,000 of something, and the whole point of your job is to know how many of these things there are, then you fucking suck at you job.
2. Once you find 250% more of an animal then you though there were you can't fucking call them "Rare" anymore.

Retro Links - 3/27/2008

In honor of Ja-Bay being traded whilst I was on vacation. Regular links up this Thursday.


"Stood in firelight, sweltering. Bloodstain on chest like map of violent new continent. Felt cleansed. Felt dark planet turn under my feet and knew what cats know that makes them scream like babies in night. Looked at sky through smoke heavy with human fat and God was not there. The cold, suffocating dark goes on forever and we are alone. Live our lives, lacking anything better to do. Devise reason later. Born from oblivion; bear children, hell-bound as ourselves, go into oblivion. There is nothing else. Existence is random. Has no pattern save what we imagine after staring at it for too long. No meaning save what we choose to impose. This rudderless world is not shaped by vague metaphysical forces. It is not God who kills the children. Not fate that butchers them or destiny that feeds them to the dogs. It's us. Only us. Streets stank of fire. The void breathed hard on my heart, turning its illusions to ice, shattering them. Was reborn then, free to scrawl own design on this morally blank world. Was Rorschach."

Pirates season preview - This is the year they win 70, I can feel it

From the NL Central Season preview on Deadspin, no link, just quote:
"I hate being a Pirates fan. At least when the Cubs suck people still give them a sideways glance.

Shit, the Pirates wouldn't make national news unless Jason Bay ripped off his human mask, exposed himself as one of the aliens from "V", hit a grand slam that went into the river, consumed a live rat as he rounded the bases, and then jumped into the mothership, cackling manically about stealing all of Earth's water, and took off into the sky.
Well....
They still wouldn't make it into the top ten plays on ESPN, because I'm sure Jack Wilson would fuck it all up somehow. "

KSK Mock Draft
I choose "Chasing Amy." I always thought the ending with him and her not talking again then meeting again a year later and being cool with each other to show that each has grown was unnneccesary. They should break up, then Amy goes on some batshit crazy lezbian and blow bender, shoots smack into her eye and winds up dead in an alley.
