Via The Neurocritic. brainscannr by Ken Yasumoto-Nicolson. Try it with your name. Hot! :)
As I noted earlier today I've actually been tagged for PZ's patented Mutating Genre Meme twice, so rather than rolling both into one I'll pass on one version today and the other tomorrow (would this mean that I have double the reproductive success of other bloggers?). The first comes from the always insightful Primate Diaries, but before I mutate the meme I should probably pass along the rules, as well; There are a set of questions below that are all of the form, "The best [subgenre] [medium] in [genre] is...". Copy the questions, and before answering them, you may modify them in a limited…
tags: blogosphere, five lives meme, meme I don't think this was intended to be a meme, but it is certainly has all the makings of a good meme. Basically, it is a self exploration exercise where you imagine that you could have five lives where you could explore five different careers, lifestyles, whatever -- what would they be?

tags: blogosphere, meme, 23-5 meme I was tagged with a meme by my good friend, Philaelaethes, author of Bouphonia. Unless you've been living under a rock, you know that Phila is the man who single-handedly puts together the world-famous Friday Nudi Blogs, which recently began incorporating poetry (an especially fine touch, in my opinion). The meme goes like this; 1. Go into your archives. 2. Find your 23rd post. 3. Post the fifth sentence (or closest to it). 4. Post the text of the sentence in your blog along with these instructions. 5. Tag five other people to do the same thing. Despite…
