Friday Quick Hits and Varia
Fall is starting to give way to early winter here in North Dakotaland with a brief moment of something frozen falling from the sky yesterday and temperatures that dip into the upper 20s predicted for tonight. It’s been a long, warm summer, but I think most of us survived to hibernate yet another year.
It’s also an intriguing weekend for sports with the big Ohio State – Penn State game on Saturday night. The NASCAR guys trying their luck at the “roval” in Charlotte and the Formula 1 kids are in Russia. For Carson Wentz related reasons, the Eagles will be on TV here in Grand Forks. It should be an entertaining way to put the last couple week’s of the Phillies season behind me and get warmed up for the start of Australia’s summer cricket season on October 7.
Despite the packed schedule, I’m leaving a little time for short list of quick hits and varia:
Some Cyprus in the newest issue of the American Journal of Archaeology (and Poehler on Pompeii).
Meta.
What I’m reading: Rachael Kiddey, Homeless Heritage: Collaborative Social Archaeology as Therapeutic Practice. Oxford 2017.
What I’m listening to: Thad Jones/Mel Lewis, Central Park North.
