What is this strange blog that seems to like me, happy about my voice and putting me on my very own blog roll and stuff?????
Don't forget to check out the "about" page.

This is an experiment. To reduce complexity in my own life and enhance the quality of communication between me and you, I'm going to try this "newsletter" thingie. It will probably be weekly, roughly timed for the middle of the week, and will include links to the blog posts I personally wish that…
About a month ago, I migrated from the safe, stable climate of Wordpress to the unknown but promising habitat of ScienceBlogs. With four weeks having flown by, this seems like a good a point as any to have a bit of a navel-gazing retrospective about what's changed since the move.
And the answer is…
During my winter blogging break, I thought I'd repost of few of my "greatest hits" from my old blog, just so you all wouldn't miss me so much. This one is from September 24, 2007. This post follows up on my initial 2007 post which I reposted yesterday.
It's worth noting that the blog has evolved…
The always interesting Timothy Burke has a post that's basically a long links dump pointing to two articles about the state of humanities in academia, which includes a sort of aside that is more interesting to me than either of the linked articles:
This leads me to the second piece I really liked…
goat-fuckery? Bwahahahahaaaa I love that term.
Upside the head for that one, right Greg?
I have no choice but to add it to my blogroll.
I eat goats - but not like that.
Is that passive/aggressive behavior of you? Asking us to view the "about" page? ;-)
[2]NEB: Actually, it is totally correct. I wouldn't say that I have "filer" (because I'm not really trying to fill something) but I do have chaff. The difficult thing is figuring out what is chaff.
Stacy: I guess so, now that you mention it...
Doesn't goatfuckery imply an oppressive testosterone-centric and heteronormative* worldview? After all, fucking the goat is a completely different proposition than being fucked by the goat -- both for us and for the goat.
* And some other post-modern stuff that I'm not quite awake enough to think of at the moment. I'll come back after I've had more coffee.**
** Yes, I'm aware that coffee is an invasive species imported by oppressive colonial conquerors and maintained by a landless, alienated peasantry who are oppressed by patriarchal oligarchies, themselves propped up by the neo-colonial, corpratist policies of our own ruling elite and that consuming imported beverages increases my carbon footprint and defeats the enlightened locovore efforts of American family farmers who, along with their puppies, are the final bulwark against oppressive, neo-colonial, corpratist ruling elites. Caffeine and yumminess trump all that.
Stacy: I fail to see the passive.
Not usually? ;-)
