Neil Gaiman linked to this TED talk about five things you should let your child play with; and I agree with all of them. Except for the spear, because you can just as easily learn to throw stuff or triangulate with a bow and arrow. I think I'm a braver person and more capable of doing STUFF than lots of my peers, all for the sake that I played with fire and had a pocket knife. And I know I'm a more limited person for my lack of driving skills.

So if you have a little kid, get out and do stuff.

About a zillion years ago (internet time) I was a little roleplaying dork who helped make a roleplaying site about unicorns. (Based on Meredith Ann Pierce's books, still good, I don't care about grown up embarrassment about multi-colored unicorns.) Well, just look at the IFAS now!

I'm a little creeped out now, because it is STILL SNOWING. Very weird.

ETA: I forgot! this entry on Barack Obama logos that never were is pretty great. The Barack Obama "O" logo really is some of the solidest design work that has ever happened.
