yendiYesterday was server-upgrade day, so I was mostly not on the intarwebs. Playing catch-up now.
1. There's a Chef Duff minimate! Complete with chainsaw (because that's how you make cakes, right?).
2. Rotten Tomatoes has a Coraline sneak peak.
3. Best. Worldcon report. Evar.
4. Orson Scott Card: Homophobic Humpty Dumpty.
5. Seth Green on Heroes!
6. The 20 most addictive browser games. I'll vouch for Kingdom of Loathing, of course.
7. Seven things to never say to a customer service rep, and seven things to definitely say.
8. Bacon: Less inflammatory than tilapia (ganked from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rubian77).
9. I missed Martha Plimpton singing the theme song to the Jeffersons? Noooo!
10. Finally, Patrick Nielsen Hayden notes the lack of Hugo winners under the age of 45. In comments, Elizabeth Bear notes the Worldcon/Wiscon gap. Others note the price factor of Worldcon (sorry, but when you buy memberships to Wiscon, Boskone, Minicon, Arisia, and Readercon for the same total price, it's hard to look at a very tight budget and even think about blowing it on one con). The comments keep bringing up more and more interesting points on SF, writing, cons, fandom, and other stuff. Read the whole thread.
