Can you make me a new Nate the Great detective book series avatar?

I won two giveaways, I think. After the second book I stopped entering because I didn't want to continue committing to reading and reviewing books.

Yes, my position is yes, emphatically. I like creepy babies.

Trying to put the 'beat down' (and drag out) back into things, eh? ;) No, I was reacting to someone who burst into the room and immediately started shouting something bizarre. I think I understand now though; you were meaning to introduce that as a debate topic? If so security releases you. But I r...

I just barely missed it a dozen times over a few hours, waiting for it to land long enough and in a solid enough place that I could kill it. There has to be a better way. I know there are a...

I'm slowly indoctrinating my wife.

It's really cool that they're actively soliciting listener feedback. Have they done a survey like this in the past?

Currently reading The Media Lab by Stewart Brand. Super old book, published in the late '80's, but I'm really enjoying it. Loads of incredibly smart people waxing eloquent about the potential of technologies that are now either common place or antiquated. It's nostalgic in a delightfully hopeful way.

This is a really interesting project. I tend to listen to a lot of the same, and rarely listen to an entire album as a whole. I'm super tempted to try this approach to listening...

The fire alarms in our house are extremely sensitive and temporarily-lose-your-hearing loud. Making toast feels like playing Russian Roulette.
