Friday Varia and Quick Hits

I have over 100 papers to grade, a couple of springstruck dogs, two books that are not quite done, and 1500 words to cut from a 5000 word essay. Seems like it’s going to be a pretty good weekend because summer (or what passes for summer in these parts) is here.

In celebration of the end of the semester, enjoy a little gaggle of quick hits and varia:

• The Sinai Icon Collection.

• Gratitude as a corporate value.

• Torching the 21st Century Library of Alexandria.

• It’s great to suck at something.

• Our Pre-Truth World.

• Writing better won’t help.

• Living atop an abandoned oil or gas well.

• Lose your accreditation and free your mind!

• A very young West Indies cricket team defeated Pakistan in the Windies. Nice win, guys!

• What I’m reading: Go check out my summer reading list!

• What I’m listening to: Charlie Hunter, Natty Dread.
