Thunderstorms
Heat Death
Published, woo hoo!
Winter is pretty… sometimes.
Right now there’s hoarfrost on everything.
The jetpack theory
Tom Gauld has it right. 100% right, IMHO.
Profoundly [something]
…where [something] is either awesome or disturbing.
Awesturbing?
Maybe there just aren’t words yet for what this is. Maybe the cake-maker has transcended the capacity of the English language.
The movie deal (now with picture!)
So a friend of mine took a degree in film, and has made some short films. The other day he said, “Hey, I’d love to do a short film based on Resurrection Radio. How much would you want for film rights?”
I said, “Let me think on it.”
Today I gave him a figure, and he agreed.
And yes, he’s got a deal with Stephen King, and yes, I’m making more than King — by a considerable margin — but no, it’s not going to pay off the mortgage.
(Hint: The deal he’s got with King is on a dollar baby story.)
Memory lane

Via a cow-orker: Our world* may be a giant hologram.
“…[Y]ou can think of the universe as a sphere whose outer surface is papered in Planck length-sized squares, each containing one bit of information.”
Well, maybe you can. I can’t. Not yet, anyways.

* If by “world” we mean “Universe”.
