By The Way...

Blink. There goes another week.

* Jcgeorgiapeach is getting ready for life without school: "I'm trying to think of ways to keep two adolescent boys busy without sending them to camp." Well, you know. There's always chores.

* Daniel Drezner is looking at the Sudan and the terrible things that are going on there. Haven't heard? Find out.

* The folks at VodkaPundit are getting agitated at a school administrator having a tiff with the College Republicans.

* Have a flower. A big flower.

* Proof people will blog about anything -- and make it interesting: A review of cheap pens, each accompanied by a really groovy watercolor of said pen. That's obsessive and cool!

* Here's some excellent advice to offer teens as they head out for a night -- and excellent for everyone: Parent Yourself. It's certainly true that the difference between being smart and being stupid is one quick thought to consequences. I should note that it's easier to "parent myself" now that I actually have someone else I'm supposed to be parenting. Practice, practice, practice.

* I'm voting green this year!

* Caprine has today's oddest quote. And it involves kittens. Now aren't you curious.

* The difference between what one wants to do, and what one ends up doing. This is something I understand all too well. Every morning I wake up with a huge list of things I want to do. Then the next thing I know it's 5pm. Someone clearly neads to slow down the rotation of the planet. I need more time.

* Andy Kaufman said he'd return 20 years after his death. Did he? Maybe.

* And now, something for the geeks: Slashdot is collecting worst explanations from tech support for your tech problems. There are some good 'uns.
