Hearing Juicebox -- The Strokes

National De-lurking Week




Did you know that this week has been National De-lurking Week, in which people who read other people's blog and journals but never comment are encouraged to "delurk" and leave a comment and say hello? It's clearly late in the week, being Friday and all, but there's still time to encourage folks to say hello for the first time.

And indeed, if you've been reading By The Way for a while and have never left a message before, I encourage you to drop a note and say hello. I like meeting new folks.

    delurking here, coz i can...i read both by the way and whatever...i don't want to miss anything.  btw, Android's Dream kicked butt.

    p.s. i just hired a ROTC kid to work in my library (UIUC ACES library) as a student assistant.  He hasn't read any classic military sciece fiction so I'm going to make him read Starship Troopers, The Forever War and Old Man's War.  If he has any comments I will let you know....
